Grapefruit - annoying/not annoying

[Orang Utan]

I like to put sugar on a few fruits but it was suggested that grapefruit needed it to be palatable.

Strawberries need neither sugar nor cream, but they taste amazing with them.
Same with slices of orange with brown sugar, cinnamon and rose water
Also roasted pineapple with brown sugar and pepper or chili

Brown sugar can be nice on things in its own right (like porridge). It has an intense flavour - it's not just sweet.

Strawberry with a little black pepper is not to be sniffed at.

I too have a bendy knife to help with the prep, and a serrated, scrape-y spoon for peak extraction...I then cover it all in honey

I eat mine unsweetened. Does that make me strange?

Straight edge. Grrr.

Strawberry with a little black pepper is not to be sniffed at.

And/or balsamic vinegar!

Another one on statins.

I mostly miss M&S Pink Grapefruit squash. I have a suspicion that there is very little actual grapefruit in it, but make do with Lemon & Lime instead.

You can get a special tool for going round the edge of grapefruit.

The special tool is called a bin.

Seagull bills work well

Seagull bills work well

Even seagulls won't eat grapefruit.

Even seagulls won't eat grapefruit.

I wonder if you loaded a mackerel with Space Dust and fed it to a seagull would the seagull explode.

I take statins, so have to avoid them.

They were a faff to cut up, but I liked them, and gin and grapefruit juice was excellent

Red/pink grapefruit is usually kinda sweet

and that's the thing. it's a grapefruit, but sweet.
it's the culmination of all mendel's efforts.
