First up, let's answer the billion-dollar question:
What's the difference between a grapefruit and a pomelo?
In short, with the way people use these two terms, they're essentially the same thing
However, if you were to trace back to each fruit's historical roots, they're actually two different fruits, despite their nearly identical nutritional values
Amazing, right?
Let's learn more about them!
Both grapefruits and pomelos are citrus fruits and share a similar appearance, which is why they're often referred to as the same fruit
However, pomelos are a natural citrus fruit meanwhile grapefruits are subtropical citrus fruit (aka they're a cross between sweet oranges and pomelos)
Their peels are different as well. The skin of grapefruit is yellow-orange and is oftentimes softer and thinner than that of a pomelo's skin
Meanwhile, when a pomelo is unripe, its' skin is pale green and it only turns yellow as it ripens
Respectively, a pomelo's skin is thick and pebbly
Their tastes are also different as well
If you prefer a sweeter fruit, I'd go for the grapefruit
If you like a more tangy, tart, AND sweet flavor, the pomelo is the way to go!
