@Sooner  Me too. I try to limit salt intake but enjoy a little on grapefruit.

I absolutely love grapefruit, especially with vodka and cranberry and a lime.

I actually prefer the white ones and their juice to the pink or red ones, but the white are becoming collector's items in my neck of the woods.  I also take statins but every now and again will try to catch a beautiful Sea Breeze in order to escape the heat!

I love grapefruit but can't eat/drink it because it affects my medication.

I love grapefruit.

 

Sadly, I no longer buy and eat it, as I take a statin for cholesterol, and it, apparently, can make that less effective.

 

The only time I treat myself to grapefruit is when we go to Cape Cod...one of our favorite restaurants' signature drink is fresh squeezed "Sea Breezes" made with fresh grapefruit.

I used to love grapefruit but I can't eat it as I take a statin. Honestly I think I used to put more sugar on it than I should have so maybe it's best.

Oh yes I do but my tastes changed.  As a child I had to sprinkle one teaspoon ( or as much as I could hide from my Mom) on the fruit.   No I love it just on its own.  So sweet and tart.

Ruby red!  It's been years, but I always loved the ruby red grapefruit.  I think I'll put it on my list.

I really like the taste of grapefruit, but my body does not accept nor tolerate anything citrus, so it's on my foods to avoid list.
