i love eating grapefruit! it is in season right now and often goes on sale at macey's or sunflower market. i like stocking up on a lot because they last a long time. they are also a quick and easy breakfast.
As long as you don't eat it while on any medications... ;) In my pharmacology class we learned that grapefruit juice increases the potency and effect of almost any medication. Anyways...
