February is National Grapefruit Month. Grapefruits should be stored loose at cool room temperatures: it is generally accepted that unrefrigerated grapefruit has a better taste. Unrefrigerated grapefruit remains fresh for four to five days. To keep for longer periods, store in the refrigerator crisper, where it will last up to three weeks. Give your sweetheart a RED grapefruit for Saint Valentine's day, along with a note saying, "It's National Grapefruit Month-I love you", you will save a lot of money. - Millet
