shout-out to pomelo, fucking og i never even heard of, responsible for two of my favorite fruits

I always thought pomelo was some kind of over bred accident that was trying to be passed off as gourmet citrus with its two inch thick pith and its disappointing flavor. I suppose it gets a pass as it's an actual naturally occurring fruit.

As far as I remember, it tastes like a slightly bitter and more sour lemon.
