It's diuretic, much like caffeine or alcohol. Also nice for lymph circulation and Vitamin C input. If it only tasted better, it would be divine.

You all saturate one of the only pure and alcohol free parts of my life. Excuse me while I watch a solitary disney movie and eat a grapefruit. Then pee. Lots.

grapefruit is only good if you pile about a half an inch of sugar on it before you eat it. or at least that's how i eat it.

I peel them and eat them like an orange Really? i've never seen anyone do that before. I cut them in half, then take a knife and cut all around each individual pulp section (i don't know what to call those) on each side and the back, then pour sugar all over it and eat it with a grapefruit spoon, but if i don't have a grapefruit spoon, just a regular spoon will work. But i really do prefer a grapefruit spoon. umm but yeah with all the cutting, it's a good five minute preparation procedure. It almost becomes compulsive because i like to go around the grapefruit a couple times to make sure that every little pulp section has been severed away from the skin part of the grapefruit.

If it only tasted better, it would be divine. You peel off the rank bitter skin and pith and skin so you get the little caviar-style NAKED segments and then you eat it. And its very tasty. I'm addicted to grapefruits and they dont make me pee. Maybe they make you pee because you drink 4 litres of water before you eat one and havent made the connection between the water and the peeing?

Yeah I do the halved then cut around the flesh then cut inbetween each little segment. It takes so long it's almost not worth it in the end, or you have to have lots and lots and cut them super fast.
I don't think I drink heaps of water before I eat grapefruit, but I'll bear that in mind. Maybe it's just a freaky coincidence..

Asparagus is also another evil plant product. Fluoro-yellow stink urine? No thanks.

But you're too busy blaming the grapefruit.
