Not when it comes to grapefruit anyway. Check out my giant grapefruit:
I pulled three like this off the tree; I was excited to cut one open.
But the lack of flesh was disappointing. You get the same amount of fruit from a regular-sized grapefruit. You only end up with more rind and membrane. Although the membrane on its own is magnificent. Sort of a strange comment about compost material, I know, but it was literally so soft I wanted to lay my head on it and take a nap.
It probably would’ve bounced, but trade it for a Chinese grapefruit and you might get a dribble. Sweeter than a typical grapefruit, some will grow as big as basketballs! They’re also known as pummelos.
