The Giant Grapefruit

One of the amazing things about Taiwan is the fruit. This is a great place for fruit and vegetables, so, I love being here. That’s why I’m so slender and slim—that’s why I look like I’m ten years younger. Because this is the good life here—I am living the good life in Taiwan. So, I feel like Superman and, you know, and uh, it’s all because of this; great fruit, vegetables, and of course, fish, that are in Taiwan.
This is a grapefruit. This is a grapefruit. And, uh, I know it looks like it was just outside of a nuclear power plant. Maybe the radiation got to this thing. But this is actually a giant grapefruit that is grown here in Taiwan. Can you believe this thing?
I don’t know what this thing weighs—it weighs about, oh, I don’t know, this thing is about 8 pounds. It’s about an 8 pound, maybe a 4 kilogram grapefruit. So, that is an amazing piece of fruit. This is a grapefruit.
The taste is kind of “hai hao”, “so-so”, right? It loses something when it gets so big, but isn’t that an amazing thing?
All the fruit is much bigger here in Taiwan. Not only can you eat this grapefruit, you can also wear it. It is, it becomes a very stylish hat. So if it’s raining outside, then you can go outside, and it will protect your head, keep you dry.
Taiwan fruit—serves many purposes, and keeps you healthy. See you next time.
