grapefruit
Sour breakfast sphere
Grapefruit is a large citrus fruit with a thick yellow or pinkish rind and tart, slightly bitter flesh that ranges from pale yellow to deep pink or red.
It grows in clusters on the tree, which may explain the name—though the fruit itself resembles an oversized orange more than a grape.
Grapefruit is eaten fresh, juiced, or used in salads and desserts.
I have half a grapefruit for breakfast most mornings.
The fruit is known for interacting with certain medications, affecting how drugs are metabolized.
