There's a similar gene for grapefruit. My parents love grapefruit. But to me it tastes like the devil. Love grapefruit candy and soda though.
Isn't it just that they grew up eating that?
You would think the parents that love it would feed it to their kid, but kids are weird about food so maybe OP didn't eat anything but bananas and peanut butter.
I grew up eating it too. I thought maybe I didn't like the ones from our tree, but I got one from the supermarket once and it was the same flavor. I understand grapefruit is supposed to be fairly bitter but to me it tastes more like bile.
