grapefruit
Known for its bitter taste, the Grapefruit is one of citrus’s most well known products. The fruit has become popular since the late 19th century; before then, it was only grown as an ornamental plant. The United States quickly became a major producer of the fruit, with groves in Florida, Texas, Arizona, and California.
