Do you know how to choose a good grapefruit? Well here is
some information that will make you add grapefruits to your shopping list!
Perfect pick: Opt for a heavy fruit (a sign of juiciness)
with think skin that is a tad responsive to a squeeze. Small imperfections in
color and skin surface are not detrimental to the sweet-tart flavor. Yet, avoid
any that are very rough or have soft spots. The same criteria apply for
oranges.
Peak Season: October to June
Handle with care: Store refrigerated for 2-3 weeks.
The Payoff: Grapefruits contain an anticancer lycopene and
120% of daily vitamin C needs in 1 cup.
