If you're on any prescription meds, there's a decent chance it will literally kill you.

>>21880790
You're supposed to say fuck it and add sugar
>>
>>21880795
litreally poured a mountain of sugar on it, and the bitterness cut right through

When you get older your tastebuds will change and they will be a lot less bitter.

>>21880803
this. grapefruit needs sugar because it has none.
>>
>>21880796
>and the bitterness cut right through
it's good right

1. red grapefruit is incredibly yummy raw or in juice especially with low or no added sugar b. if you want it to taste like a dessert, you have to add sugar and then brulee it.

grapefruit really isn't particularly bitter. it's more bitter than many fruits, but nothing that should be nuking your tastebuds. i think you might just be very sensitive to bitter tastes, many young people are. if your palette is overwhelmingly sweet or fatty, the same thing applies

squirt is the best

Big retard here, always thought I was a getting bad grapefruits cause artificial grapefruit flavor tastes great compared to the actual fruit
>>
>>21880790
remove the white stuff

>>21880794
elaborate
>>
>>21880790
I like grapefruit but it turns out I'm allergic to the white pulpy part of the skin so peeling it becomes a very difficult process that's not worth the effort.

bunch of sissies in here can't appreciate the austere virtues of a grape fruit.
>>
>>21883827
Grapefruit significantly increases the bioavailability of a large number of drugs which can turn a standard dose into a harmful, or even lethal, one.
Doctors and pharmacists are usually gonna provide a verbal warning when they're giving said drugs to you but it's still a good idea to read your warning labels.

There's a list of affected drugs in this paper:
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3589309/
>>
>>21883860
the more you know.
also, wouldn't this mean that you could take lower doses of these drugs, chug them down with an appropriate dose of grapefruit and balance it out for the same effectivness?
>>
>>21883842
so you're importing a terrible fruit from halfway across the world just to feel austere?
>>
>>21880790
>made by mankind
Retarded opinion made by some actual hyper-retard
the important question is why absolute retards feel the need to broadcast their stupidity and pester everyone with it? maybe they need to make the captcha harder
>>
>>21880814
>as you tastebuds burn out, they will become more tolerant of foul flavors
Do people really need to be told this?
>>
>>21883884
I've asked that same question before. Turns out not everyone responds to the synergistic compounds the same way so you would just be adding more variance to people's recommended intake.
Better to just say "no grapefruit" and dole out standardized doses.

Back in they day everyone had a special knife and spoon for their grapefruit and ate it with sugar. In one of those old movies humprey bogart straightens some hoe's grapefruit knife out and she's like bruh
>>
>>21884070
That won't have much effect. It's the prescription stuff that's really tricky, and even then it depends on the time separation.
Fortunately, I don't like grapefruit at all and don't need to give a shit about this dietary restriction.

Pain pill and methadone addicts drink grapefruit and orange juice under the belief they'll get higher.
