Yeah. I buy the precut because they are treated and come in individual
packages. I don't think I have peeled an orange since I was a kid. If I do
prepare them I supreme them. But nobody in this house is big on oranges. I
do like grapefruits but dislike eating them from a half. I used to buy the
cups at Costco. They were yummy. Then they changed brands and were so
bitter that I didn't like them. I don't buy grapes too often. Mainly only
when my husband is home and if I can get them for cheap. Daughter won't eat
the here. Once in a while she will eat one or two at my parent's house.
They often have some sitting out.
