Tried this for breakfast and what a lovely surprise. I usually just sprinkle a little salt on my grapefruit and that's about it. Tried this, (warm it was tasty!!) and it was soooo good and simple to make. I followed exactly and really enjoyed the extra crunchy taste that came with the carmilized sugar.

    I love grapefruit...especially sugared! LOL! This is really delicious and you may even want to try grapefruit with brown sugar...I think it is even better. If you like grapefruit you will probably like this. If you don't like grapefruit give it a whirl anyway, you may enjoy it (just get a red grapfruit it is better). And don't worry if this gets warm...believe it or not warm grapefruit is tasty.

    The cinnamon really did wonders for the grapefruit. I placed it on the second broil level from the top which made it about 4-6 inches away and it took about 6 minutes for the inside sugar to start to melt. Which in turn made the grapefruit warm when you ate it. I wonder if I put it on the top level if the sugar would have melted faster with out burning anything.

    I liked this. I tried this one and the one made with brown sugar on here. I liked this one better. The cinnamon definitely helps the grapefruit (which has a rather offensive taste IMO) go down. I broiled it on high on the top rack for 2 minutes and it burned. Next time I will try to broil it on low and on a lower shelf to try to melt the sugar/cinnamon before the grapefruit burns.
