Grapefruit is a large, sour citrus fruit. It is one of the best fresh foods for quenching thirst. It also fills the stomach well for a fruit. A grapefruit weighs 0.3.
It spoils within a week, so it is best eaten or cooked soon. Grapefruit is found at grocery stands, in ice cream shop fridges and in cafeterias. The Farmer is the best occupation for fruits and vegetables. It starts with the most Agriculture skill.
Eating
Eating a grapefruit lowers hunger by 20 and thirst by 50. That thirst value is the real strength of the fruit. A can of Cola lowers thirst by only 9.
It holds only 15 calories. That makes it a poor choice for keeping body weight up. It is the right fruit for a thirsty character, and the wrong one for a hungry and thin one.
Compared with other fruit, grapefruit is very filling and very wet. An Orange lowers hunger by 12 and thirst by 8. Grapes lower hunger by 15 and thirst by 5. Its effects turn worse as it starts to rot.
The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.
