I worked at Southside Produce in BR for a while it was a good experience in learning about many kinds of unusual produce however we never came across these. Saw them at walmart earlier.. I thought they were huge yellow grapefruits at first but no. Sounds hispanic maybe they are native to somewhere south of the border. Anyone had one?

If you really want to have your mind blown go to an asian store.

If I remember correctly, they crossed pummelos with tangerines (or was it mandarins) to get grapefruits.

I do know that pummelos were crossed with a variety of tangerines to create the tangelo.

That's all I got.
