Both citrus fruits, grapefruit and pomelo, are connected. In terms of look, flavor, and nutritional content, they do differ slightly.

Pomelo can grow up to 10 inches in diameter, but grapefruit can only grow to a diameter of between 3 and 5 inches.

Whereas grapefruits rind is thinner, pink, or red, the rind of the pomelo is thicker and green or yellowish-green.

Pomelo tastes gentler, sweeter, and has less acidity than grapefruit, which is often tart and tangy with a bitter aftertaste. While grapefruit tastes more lemony, pomelos are frequently described as having a floral or fragrant flavor. Both fruits provide a lot of fiber and vitamin C but few calories.

While grapefruit has more vitamin A than pomelos, pomelos are higher in potassium.

In conclusion, pomelo is larger, sweeter, and has a thicker rind than grapefruit, which is smaller, tastier, and has a thicker rind. The decision between them may come down to personal taste and dietary preferences even though they are both healthful and nutrient-dense options.
