Interesting Facts: The pink grapefruit has better scent, but white grapefruit has stronger detoxifying effects.

The grapefruit was discovered in the 1750s, probably in Barbados; currently the grapefruit is said to be one of the "Seven Wonders of Barbados" . It had developed as a hybrid of the pomello (Citrus maxima) with the sweet orange (Citrus sinensis), though it is rather closer to the first than the second. Further crosses have produced the tangelo (1905), the minneola (1931) and the sweetie (1984).The grapefruit was known as the shaddock until the 1800s. Its current name alludes to clusters of the fruit on the tree. Botanically, it was not distinguished from the pomello until the 1830s, when it was given the name Citrus paradisi. Its true origins were not determined until the 1950s. This led to the official name being altered to Citrus × paradisi.
