Pomelo = Pointless
[fblike][twitter]
This is here is a fruit review. Some people review restaurants, some review wine, but I’m reviewing fruit. It’ll be a thing one day.
Anyway, today I tried my first pomelo. It looks like a swollen grapefruit, but is much less dense (it’s like holding a softball, actually). It was meh.
I know that thing was good for me—all citrus is, right? But it looks like a larger cousin to the oro blanco, which has become an obsession for me over the last two months. (Seriously, because of that fruit I eat a grapefruit a day now.) The pomelo isn’t as sweet; it’s also not as tart. It’s a lot of water, really, wrapped in 3/4 inch of pith and peel.
What do you think? Did I get a bad one? Am I missing something?
