Ugli Fruit

On occasion I feel adventurous and like to try new foods. This was the case as I strolled through the produce department of the local grocery store. As I walked through he aisles I found a fruit I have never tried before. It was in the citrus section but looked different and had a name to match Uniq fruit. It resembled a grapefruit. A grapefruit that was 100 years old. The skin instead of being smooth was all wrinkly and thick. I smelled it and it didn’t smell bad so I thought I would try it. I took it home and proceeded to peal it. It looks like your standard citrus fruit on the inside. I can’t say that I was overly impressed with the taste. It was sweeter than I expected but it was very dry. Very little juice. Maybe my fruit was over ripe or not ripe enough I am not sure. Maybe it was perfect. One thing I can tell you is that I won’t be running out to buy another one anytime soon.
