Oranges for juicing, grapefruit for eating, limes for flavoring.

Tp4 has quit eating the chocolate..

Was wondering why no one around me ate chocolate.. even though they have the same perk..

Now I know..  1 fatness, 2 diabetus, 3 the grease,


Unlimited fruit would be different..

The best one is the one that is already squeezed into juice.

I am hyper-sensitive to the citrus oil in the peel, which squirts out into a mist when you peel it by hand.
It not only gives me discomfort, at worst it can trigger migraine.
If someone peels it on a train, I have change car. If someone peels it on a bus, I have to get off and catch the next one.

Really ?


It's very odd you don't have any trouble with orange juice though..


Because the way orange juice is juiced industrially, it's not like at home where you only attack the innards..

The industrial juicing process actually just mechanically masticates the ENTIRE orange..  So there's actually alot of the orange oil getting in there..

A ripe grapefruit has a special place in my heart.
If you wanna get fancy sprinkle a little brown sugar/sugar in the raw on top and hit it with a blowtorch. Sweet n sour, hot n cool. Creme brulee grapefruit. Fits any time of day and any meal.

Grapefruit is really good and is pretty much the only thing that makes me regret being allergic to citrus things. I mean the idea of caramelized sugar on a grapefruit sounds pretty worth it.

I enjoy good old oranges and lemons.
Oranges to drink and lemons for baking. Sure Lime works better in most savoury and Asian dishes but lemon peel on pasta and in pies and cakes is delicious.
