My science posts seem to have a bad effect on people - Sam has nightmares about black holes, and you, poor thing, are reminded of a delicay you're no longer allowed. I do feel for you, of course, but you are allowed oanges and lemons, I'm sure. And have you considered mangoes? I make several versions of a mango salad maybe I should post the recipe...

If you do, make it a Ruby Red. They are the best.

Re: CCT
Yep, cranberries in any form are also out. I've been enjoying honey-crisp apples and granny smith apples and strawberries and blueberries.

I know Taps Arthur my Doc brother cannot have grape fruits or Cranberries. You will have to search for a fruit you can eat and enjoy. Tough but life is like that as you know.

💬Now that you mentioned it, grapefruit is strong and acidy. You’re still sweet love. BC-A, Bill’sR👀st

Sometims when I'm in the produce section and they've sliced
one of those pink Florida grapefruits in half to tempt buyers, I stop and take a deep breath. It's been years...

Re: RPresta
Of course oranges and lemons are wonderful, but I'll always remember the juicy goodness of the Florida red grapefruits.

Yes, this is sad, dear TAPS. Perhaps in time they will find a way to block that side effect. Meanwhile, would orange mixed with a little lemon work a bit, as a juice maybe? Naw! LOL!

I know dear Taps. It is really hard to take. Fortunately Wiley doesn't like Grapefruit...actually he is naughty about eating enough fruit. Sigh! Would lemon help you as a replacement for some of the times where Grapefruit has always been such a delight?
