I love the flavor of unsweetened grapefruit adn grapefruit juice. that is
how my Mother alwasy served it and I learned to love it. we have a cute
tiny video of my then 1 1/2 year old granddaughter(now just past 2) being
given part of a half grpaefruit to see if whe would like it. They
expected her to reject it, but instead , she stucck her whole head inside
the have grapefruit to guzzle it all down! I guess the taste for it runs
in the family.
