On my last visit I noticed my Makro ( Ayutthaya ) are now selling Ruby Red  grapefruit from the US ( Sunkist ).

At 99 baht a kilo ( 3 good sized ones ) they are expensive compared to ALDI prices but not far off what I would pay in my local Co-op ( 78p each ).

Bought 4 last week and just been back for another 4 today so I can recommend.
Have been compromising with Somho over here but have found them to be hit and miss a little and expensive if you go for the better variants.

 

Anyhoo, another symptom of excessive lockdown to add to the list “ starting threads about grapefruit “ ????

 

Thanks for the tip. Never thought I'd find myself replying to a Thai visa post about grapefruit. Thanks China...

Strueth, you even went to the trouble of taking a photo.... of a Grapefruit. The suspense is killing me, I can't wait to read of your next exploit and the photo where you slice the Grapefruit just to show us how pink it is.

 

Excuse me, I must return to watching lizards go up the wall.

Wait no longer !!

 

I love grapefruit but cannot eat due to the amplification effect is has on many meds . Some may not be aware..just a caution. My friend's doctor was stunned that his cholesterol had gone so low between tests...turned out the grapefruit had effectively doubled his statin dose effect inside his body. But I love grapefruit...I believe Pomelo also same issue to a lesser degree

I thank you for this. I would encourage other TV members to pass on information on bargains and/or unusual items for sale.

That is one of the functions of a form like this.

Does that mean your lizards are also getting cabin fever and going crazy?
