Paramount Citrus is expanding its portfolio with the debut of its new Wonderful™ Sweet Scarletts™ Texas Red Grapefruit in the Midwest. The growers of Wonderful® Pistachios, POM Wonderful® and most recently, Wonderful™ Halos™, are growing, packing and shipping the premium red grapefruit with availability from now through April in select Midwest cities. Markets include Chicago, Columbus, Detroit, and Indianapolis to name a few, according to a press release.

“Sweet Scarletts are so sweet you won’t even need to add sugar,” says Marc Seguin, VP of Marketing. “The combination of warm Texas days with cool nights yields sweeter and vibrant red grapefruits. We’re confident health-minded families will reach for Sweet Scarletts not only at breakfast, but also for a sweet, satisfying treat throughout the day.”

Texas red grapefruit health benefits and unique flavor can be easily incorporated into healthy lifestyle. Half of a medium grapefruit is approximately 60 calories and provides 100 percent of the recommended daily value of vitamin C.

Sweet Scarletts™ are also certified by the Non-GMO group. The item can be found in the Midwest’s produce aisles of leading grocery, mass merchant and club stores. Sweet Scarletts™ are sold in 5-pound bags, 8-pound boxes, and as loose individual fruit.
