#2836: questions about chadek : another reply

The chadek from Haiti is a cousin from the graprefruit grown and sold in the 
States.
It is different in that respect that it has a very thick skin, it is slightly 
pear-shaped and it has a different taste. 

It's botanical name is citrus decumana or maxima ( shaddock, chadek or 
pomelo) vs. citrus paradisa (graprefruit).

I have never seen it in US markets but who knows, it might be sold in Florida.
