The problem with so much of the packaged citrus is that it has artificial sweeteners in it--and I can't have those.

I haven't had a grapefruit in any form in over 20 years as it is a "no no" if you are on a statin medication.

I would be happy to find any of the choices posted here. I haven't seen a grapefruit in any form in the stores for so long. Sam's usually has big bags practically all the time for a very good price. I realize they are out of season, but I can usually find them anyway. I will check amazon. Thanks everyone.

I always see Grapefruit around the Christmas Holidays along with big oranges.

 

Years ago when my mom filled our St. Nick's stocking, you would see a grapefruit, orange, and other in season fruit.

As a single mom of 3, I thank God for those BIG apples and oranges to help fill stockings!

You might want to read this on BP and graperfruit.  I like grapefruit but gave it up.

 

Remember, blood pressure is called the "silent killer" because often we don't feel the effects.
