Ah, I've always preferred grapefruit over orange juice. Can't recall the last time I had eaten an actual grapefruit though, unless it was in a fruit bowl mix.

I prefer oranges every day, but pink grapefruit for breakfast. I don't really like regular or red grapefruits.
I prefer grapefruit juice to orange juice, which I find way too sweet. |

Thank you for resurrecting a 9 year old thread. Where did all those people go?
I like ruby red grapefruit and California navel oranges best. But I grab a pink grapefruit off the neighbors tree every other day because it’s free and would otherwise go to waste. |

How does the grapefruit compare to the Sour Oranges you experienced from the Grove near your home?

I like oranges better than grapefruit. I like grapefruit better than grapes. I like fruit better than no fruit.

Have you tried Cara Cara oranges? They are pink inside and way better than navel.
For all of you grapefruit lovers..... cut a pink grapefruit in half and gently squeeze out a little of the juice. Put grapefruit on oven safe pan and pour a little vodka over (replaces the squeezed out juice). Sprinkle with brown sugar and put under the broiler to melt the sugar. You're welcome. |

Yes. Yes. Yes. Grapefruit is far superior to Oranges. Just as limes are far superior to lemons.

They are pink and not especially sweet. I suspect that fruit quality drops as the tree ages. This tree is most likely 45-50 years old. It’s a passable grapefruit but I would probably complain if it wasn’t free. The sour oranges made an excellent mojo for me and BV Jr #1 made a sour orange pie out of them (I shipped about 20 pounds of them out to Oregon). His wife invented a drink using the juice, earl grey tea, mulling spices and Woodford Reserve bourbon. They called it the Spiced Florida Man.
