Ugli fruit

Other names: uniq fruit

A hybrid citrus fruit of grapefruit and tangerine which has a wrinkled skin that ranges in color from dark green to yellow and a seedless, juicy flesh that has a flavor similar to grapefruit, only sweeter. They are ovoid in shape and average between 3 to 7 inches in diameter, but can grow much larger. Ugli fruit can be eaten out-of-hand or they can be used to make juice and for cooking. The fruit comes from Florida and Jamaica, and is available October to December. Ugli fruit becomes bitter after a period of time so they should not be stored for too long. It is also referred to as "uniq fruit."

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?

Yes, the government should control it
No, I'll decide for myself
