I am oval like an egg, the shape of a passionfruit, my skin is yellowy-green, very thin,smooth and easy to peel , I look like a grapefruit inside pale watery yellow, I taste citrus but can only be eaten whenboiling water poured over as im too bitter.I have been told Im a lemon but have doubtsI could be a pomelo but my skin isnt thick I may be a limequat or a meyer lemon so does anyone know what I am ? the skin is the look andtexture of a lechoza, but have peelable peel and feels squiggy not like a uk lemon I am not ugli enough to be an uglifruit

Is it this one? It's called Granadillo in the DR, also known as granadilla elsewhere. Granadilla is also the word for passionfruit, a close relation, in some countries.
no im only the same shape,textile and colour- i have segments inside and my outside is soft like a lechoza

I think you are a limon dulce. Grows in the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, so can be moved out of clown bin!

They are sweeter than lemons with softer and thinner skin, but still segmented inside

lol i got a message saying it was moved --hohoho happy christmas

by the way matildas post seems to have found the answer- would appear to be a sweet lemon- grapefruit/lemon cross , i did some googling after her reply and looks the most likely

i also found a load of other citrus fruits I had never seen or heard of
