Grapefruit, May 22th, 2008

Brand: Texas Sweet (Healds Valley Farms)
Growth location: Texas
Bought in: Food Lion

I spoke too soon about the Red Star variety-- The bag has delivered me a great grapefruit. Tender, juicy, sweet, and tart all at once, the fruit provided a beautiful experience. But not every die-hard hater would be converted. Lesser slices made up perhaps 1/5th of the grapefruit. These slices did not taste bad; they were acceptable, above-average slices, but lacking the harmonious combination of the above traits. The rest of this fruit, however, was all I could ask for.
