Crappy Days

Ok...had a Crappy week with youngest struggling at school. Aspergers, hormones(he turned 16 today) and GCSE's make for a really bad recipe in my world.
To break the headache I try something new .... saw this in the supermarket...
 No idea what it was, but the name sounded freakish "POMELO"
Turns out it is a citrus fruit of some kind (thanks Wiki)
 Youtube provided instructions on how to prepare it lol
(for a technophobe I loves me some Google)
 For a cost of £1.87 each there is an awful lot of packaging...
 and apparently not a lot of fruit...
 and...
 an awful lot of work...
 though it isn't very juicy so not sticky or messy to peel.
 I would describe the texture as that of pomegranate bits...
 I repeat...an awful lot of waste for not a lot of fruit.
And it isn't very sweet...but then it may be used as a savoury dish.
So does anyone know what I can make with this?
It looks like grapefruit, but taste like a bland dry orange :/
I am thinking a bag of brown sugar may need adding lol
Enjoy :D XXX
