This baby weighed more than three pounds. I was drawn to its gorgeous lime-yellow color and grapefruit scent (I love citrus fragrances like this Jo Malone one, which I’m too cheap to buy for myself but sniff and ogle at Nordstrom sometimes). Similar to a grapefruit, this red pummelo was just as lovely looking and smelling on the inside, too.

It had dark coral-colored juicy flesh, and a thick rind that wasn’t too hard to peel. I think I should have waited for the red pummelo’s skin to turn more yellow, though, because its meat was sour. And I was disappointed with how little of it it seemed to have, but was actually full after eating a half. For about ten minutes.
