The largest citrus fruit!

Walking through Whole Foods is always an adventure, I find myself exploring the wine, the fresh fruits, the always changing selection of prepared foods. There is always something new to try and on my last excursion I came across the pummelo. Piled high in the produce section and stating boldly that it was "the largest citrus fruit in the WORLD!", the pummelo is a member of the citrus family and can grow to be the size of a volleyball. It's similar to the grapefruit and can be eaten as such but it is a bit sweeter. The rind is very spongy and with a little sugar sprinkled on top, it made a very refreshing breakfast!



Now it has been awhile since I have cut a grapefruit and it was the first time I cut pummelo so I cute vertically when I should have cut horizontally. It was still very tasty and I think in the future investing in a grapefruit tool is a good plan.
