    You guys need to give grapefruits another chance!

    Each segment of a grapefruit is covered with a film, you know what I'm talking about? That film is the bitter part. Just try peeling it off, and eat the meat instead. That stuff is godly!!

    Kirk Cameron, is that you?

    Personally, I follow the teachings of Gary Gulman on this topic. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNWToG5O2cY)

    I have recently discovered grapefruit is no longer available. I'm fairly certain the FDA or FBI banned it. Rejoice!

    you obviously all need to consider grapefruit camp

    it may be too late for you but send your children

    if you do not have children, go get 2 or 3 quick

    at grapefruit camp, the best tool for love is used......FEAR

    when you learn to fear the grapefruit, you learn to love the grapefruit

    No, just a friend. A friend who wants to save heathens from burning in FRUIT HELL.

    GRAPEFRUITS ARE THE ONLY WAY TO SALVATION

    I love it.

    But I can't have it. I take a statin for high cholesterol and some enzyme in the grapefruit causes the med to collect in the liver (or kidneys, I can never remember which one).

    I had a friend who used to be bulimic and she would drink grapefruit juice if she was having trouble throwing up cuz it was so gross it would help her get that "process" going. Personally, if they're really ripe and I'm not super hungry (and for some reason happen to have one around, which is never) I could eat one once in a while.

    Iwas very pleased when my pharmacist told me that I could not eat grapefruit on one of my medications. Its not too often I get a medical person tell me I can't do something I wouldn't want to do anyway....

    How dare you speak such blasphemy! One who makes their breakfast must eat it. A bond made with grapefruit cannot be broken.

    I was at a new friends house, and we split a grapefruit. It was the worst 15 minutes of my life and it was so hard to keep a straight face and swallow it. When she went to the bathroom I got up and threw my last piece away because I just couldn't take it anymore.

    Grapefruit is superior. I want to put grapefruit back in schools. Keep grapefruit in christmas.
    Stop forcing your beliefs on others! We don't need our kids brainwashed into liking grapefruit.

    I'm not forcing grapefruit on anyone. I just think everyone needs grapfruit in their life.

    The only food that will make me gag. My grandmother force fed me them in her fruit salads when I was a kidling. Now, you couldn't pay me to eat it. Seriously, a million dollars to eat a grapefruit, it ain't happenin!! :sick:

    Not me! Oddly, I crave it. I just hate picking at it in order to be able to eat it.

    Forced to eat grapefruit as a child to help with weight loss, of course fat kid mentality kicked in and I just consumed more calories during the day.

    I used to hate grapefruit… then one day, I just acquired the taste. Not sure why, as I was not trying to do so. I actually find the taste very interesting. Maybe that is why I like it so much now. Even when I hated it, I thought it was interesting. Most foods I dislike, I try to acquire a taste for… if they are quality foods that is!
