I love grapefruit

One of my favorite family pastimes is eating grapefruit. Funny huh, because it wouldn't seem so much a pastime as simply going through the motions of eating fruit, but with the unique construction of a grapefruit, it becomes this great ritual. The thick rind of the fruit forces the group to sit with bated breath as they watch the person peeling it. Sometimes when it's really thick we score the skin with a knife before hacking away the great pithy rind. Then, peeling away the bitter white fluff to reveal juicy ruby (or yellow) sections is the kicker! That, or we eat it breakfast-style, cut in half with the sections scored out for spooning into mouths. yum yum yum. grapefruit.
