all my life, i've hated grapefruit with a screaming passion. i can't even tell you how much, but it's right up there with green peppers. every few years, i'd try a bite of one just to see if i still hated it as much as i did, and i wasn't ever disappointed. but for some reason, this year i have finally decided that i love the things! a little old guy giving out samples at a local grocery talked me into trying WHITE grapefruit, and i loved it! after that, i tried some of the others, and loved them! so now i'm buying them all the time.
question: are they better off stored in the fridge, or at room temperature, or does it matter much? i've been keeping them in the fridge, but i notice that they get a ltitle weird there, not dried out, but defintiely not the same as when i get them fresh from the store, where they are unrefrigerated....

Welcome to the club, Ron!
I love grapefruit and drink grapefruit juice like it's going out of style. I store grapefruits at room temp. Also, all my life I hated green bell peppers until about the past 10 years or so and have grown to love them. Weird how our tastes change as we get older but I don't hold out any hope of my ever liking broccoli! |

I love grapefruit as well, but am unable to eat it due to cholesterol medication. If you're taking a statin and eat grapefruit I guess your liver just falls out on the floor or something like that.
