Title: Grapefruit
Post by: YPrrrr on April 04, 2017, 01:39:57 PM
I've always loved grapefruit and its juicy sour citrusy flavor. It's probably a big part of why I like IPAs so much

But apparently a large subset of the population thinks they're bitter and gross akudood;

So lemme know if we can still be friends

I was just reading about them and how they were a parent of the grapefruit

I've been searching for a more portable grapefruit and now I'm hunting for a pomelo to try  :O

  • seedless
  • flavorful
  • easy to peel precisely because of the thicc rind
  • br>
    they're significantly better than mandarins/clementines/tangerines, which in turn are better than generic seeded oranges

ll no wonder n_u

To eat them when you're on the go? Idk mandarins and clementines peel easily so it's pretty natural. I would agree peeling an orange is a pain in the ass and using a knife is way better.
Title: Re: Grapefruit
Post by: Kalahari Inkantation on July 29, 2018, 05:55:07 PM
and citrus fruits are perhaps the worst possible fruit choice for eating "on the go" because no matter what you're going to make a huge mess, and you can't necessarily clean up effectively while on the go lol

i don't want to risk being a sticky animal all day after eating smth

eating an orange or grapefruit requires a large table, a sharp knife, a large plate/cutting board, running water, (paper) towels, soap, a silk bib and a helmet

citrus fruits in their natural form are not something i would ever even consider eating outside of the house lol

tec have you ever had a clementine
you just eat the whole thing aside from the skin, unlike shitty oranges that are full of inedible nonsense and  are a bitch to peel, and often the juice isn't very good imo
