We all know that grapefruits come in their own, prepackaged, perfectly sized, biodegradable bowls,
but have you ever really looked at the interior of a grapefruit?
I did this morning - and it's both weird/creepy as well as amazingly textured, miniature and kinda pretty.
I'd never bothered to really look, but today I realized that there are thousands of tiny, bursting water (citrus) balloons filling every grapefruit. Little pearls of squishy, explosive, worm-like threads (gross!) that made me pause in awe at their intricate design, laugh out loud at their ability to shoot their juiciness across the room like milk from a cow's teat, and squirm in discomfort at the idea of eating a see-through (lifeless) grub. All of this with breakfast! It should be a good day.
