I normally slice it in half covered the fruit with sugar and wrap it up and leave overnight ready to eat for breakfast, I cant face it without sugar

Does leaving it in the fridge do anything different to it?

I cut the grapefruit in half and then sprinkle sugar over it then use a spoon to dig out the fruit inside. I also like to drink grapeful juice, I heard somewhere that because grapefruit is acidic it helps to break the fats down in your body, don't know how true that is.

I peel and eat it like an orange, too, but no sugar thank you. I like sour things sour and sweet things sweet and no mixing. When I make a bitter lemon tonic, hubby winces. But he drinks vinegar, so go figure.

I would peel my grapefruit that way I get every piece unlike if I was to cut it in half, I would leave pieces behind that I would want but just couldn't get a hold of it. And I use salt all over each piece and sometimes after I bite into a piece I like to dip it in some more salt so it gets the insides. I use to do sugar but I just enjoy the salt much more.

I just cut mine half, sprinkle a little sugar on each half and scoop the segments out with a grapefruit spoon. I eat grapefruit every day!

I never thought to peel them! I cut it in half, cut the slices inside sprinkle sugar and try to get it out the whole. I'll have to remember to peel them next time I have some.

I don't eat grapefruit very often but when I do, I like to peel it also and let it soak in sugar for a while to get that sour taste out of it. I cannot just peel it and eat it plain. I like to slice mine up also so it is alot easier to eat. It is very juicy when you bite into it.

Usually if it's part of my breakfast I cut it in half and scoop the segments out with a spoon. Sometimes for an afternoon snack I will peel it and eat it like an orange though, I don't really prefer one way over the other.

I am not that crazy about grapefruit... but when i am in the mood... i also peel it and eat it like an orange... but i don't dip it in sugar... i have never tried that before... but i tried dipping it in salt... and this would take care of the very sour taste...

I don't!!!! LOL But for my girls, I half it, then use a knife to cut along the membrane and into little sections, so they can scoop it out. Then I sprinkle sugar on it. They scoop as muc as they can, then they squeeze the juice into a cup and drink it.

I don't like grapefruit. Even dipped in or covered in sugar. It tastes bitter to me. I have never been able to eat them.

I cut it in half, cut along the edges of each section with a knife, sprinkle with sugar, and scoop the sections out with a spoon. :)
