Wash your grapefruit thoroughly.<\/h4>\n<p>You\u2019ll want to remove any dirt that may be on the outer skin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>2. Cut the top and bottom of the grapefruit so that the flesh is exposed on either side.<\/h4>\n<p>Taking off the top and bottom parts of the skin will help the next few steps become easier. Trust us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>3. Remove the skin around the grapefruit.<\/h4>\n<p>Try cutting in smaller chunks to remove the skin evenly. Be careful not to cut too far into the grapefruit- you wouldn\u2019t want to lose any valuable fruit!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>4. Celebrate, because you\u2019re halfway there!<\/h4>\n<p>Woohoo!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>5. Carefully separate the grapefruit segments with a knife.<\/h4>\n<p>The end is near, folks! For this next step, you\u2019ll want to take your knife and gently run it along the natural lines and edges of the grapefruit sections. The trick to slicing a grapefruit is that you don\u2019t need to run your knife too hard, the grapefruit will have natural breaks where you will guide your knife through. Gently pull those juicy slices out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Enjoy!<\/h4>\n<p>Some people like sprinkling sugar or salt on their grapefruit. But if you ask us, the best way to eat a Florida Grapefruit is plain (the natural flavor of the fruit is anything but)! With a true Florida grapefruit, there is really no reason to add a thing- they are naturally sweet, and good for you too!
