I know, I know...its not what is exactly commonly called healthy...but it actually is...

...drizzle with a little honey.
Honey is a natural antibiotic and is actually quite good for us if used in --moderation--. ;-)

Salt it lightly :-)

i put artificial sweetner on mine like equal or sweet and low.

sprinkle sugar on it...
or I like to use splenda, because grapefruit makes a great addition to a diet

buy ruby red grapefruit and put splenda on it

add orange juice to it, or pinapple juice.

My Granny used to cut them in half & section them the night before...then sprinkle sugar (nowadays I'd say Splenda) on it. Cover loosely & refrigerate overnight. The sugar gets into the fruit & tastes great the next morning.

Here is a completely different way to eat it.... in a salad...

Broiled Grapefruit:
I lived in Fla. for 15 years and my out of town guest loved this...
Slice grapefruit and section with grapefruit knife but leave flesh in the rine.
Sprinkle with 1/2 t. brown sugar per side
Place under broiler till sugar bubbles
serve
**believe me its incredible for breakfast or a snack

Cut it in half then score the sections inside the membrane. Then sprinkle each half with splenda. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. It's not that bad. My mom likes it with a little pineapple juice on top, but that's too much for me.
