Ruby Red
Grapefruits Are
Back
If you’ve been longing for the
taste of a Ruby Red grapefruit
since the freeze of 1983 wiped out
this unique Texas crop, now is
your change - but it may not last
much past Christmas.
“Agricultural economists
estimate that the 1986 crop is just
13-20 percent of the pre-freeze
crop,” says Marilyn Haggard, a
Texas A&M University
Agricultural Extension Service
nutrition specialist. With the
smaller crop, producers are selling
rather than storing the grapefruit,
so supplies could drop off rapidly
after Christmas, she adds.
The Ruby Red grapefruit, with
its characteristic pink blush, can
be found in many supermarket
produce sections, Haggard says.
It’s also featured in gift packs sold
by commercial firms and by ser-
vice organizations as fund-raisers.
