GRAPEFRUIT – BEST FLAVOR – IN SEASON NOW

In honor of The Grapefruit League starting back up this week (as in the MLB’s spring training exhibition games in Florida – Go Phillies!), I thought it’d be timely to tell you how good I think Florida Red and Pink Grapefruit are tasting right now. They’re delicious! Mild, very sweet, but still tangy enough to remind you they’re a Grapefruit. This late season fruit from Florida (and Texas too) is some of the best eating of the year! The next few weeks are an excellent time to enjoy Grapefruit – for breakfast, a snack, on salad or as fresh-squeezed juice. Select Grapefruit that feel heavy for their size. Scars or a few splotchy color spots on the skin are nothing to worry about, but soft spots are.
