I first encountered the unique taste of Grapefruit about 10 years back and have never liked the taste in spite of its long list of benefits. But recently I saw this post and was intrigued and wanted to check if this would change my opinion about Grapefruit. I personally felt that the grapefruit was not too tart for my taste and so added a little lemon juice. Enjoy the goodness of grapefruit like we did!

Looks good.
I literally had to throw it away when I brought the grape fruit for the first time. I was expecting it to be tart but it was unbearably bitter. I think may be the batch I got was not good.
I too remember Priya's post but whenever I think of buying the fruit, my husband don't let me, because of the previous experience. :(
How very interesting ....looks yum
