fruit

Isn't that purty!!! In case you have never had one, it is a Pummelo, also known as a Chinese Grapefruit. The one I had was about 9 inches across. It's like a grapefruit on steroids!!! [grin] Now I have to admit that the pummelo is deceiving. It is huge on the outside, but the edible part is barely larger than what you would get out of a regular grapefruit. It has a thick skin and thick membrane surrounding the segments. The taste is sweet-tart and less acidic than grapefruit. This would be a good citrus fruit for people who have trouble with the acidity of other citrus. The one I had was pink, but you can also find them with white fruit.B = 1/2 of a pummelo (Bob had the other half!)S = six medool datesL = green smoothie (banana/spinach/coconut water) with royal jellyS = 2 Oh My this is a Tuna! wraps in red romaine leavesS = grape juice with club sodaD = 2 bananas

Day Eighteen
It works!!! I got a mango splitter for Christmas and have been patiently waiting for my mango to get ripe enough to use so that I could try it out. I am so pleased! OXO Good Grips makes this product and it works like a dream. It seperates the seed from the flesh and then all you have to do is score the fruit and squeeze it. The flesh just pops right out of the skin!!! You might want to ask for one of these bad boys for your next special day!!!B = 2 bananasS = red bell pepperL = Manana SmoothieS = 3 medool dates with raw almond butterD = mixed greens salad with spinach
