Grāpples - digg this

grapple.jpg My wife picked up four of these Grāpple Brand Apples at the grocery store. She raved about them and told me that when I got home I'd have to try one. I opened the blister pack and was hit with the sweet smell. It was indeed reminiscent of grapes. These start life as Fujis and are infused with grape flavor.

All ingredients are USDA and FDA approved and the process has been licensed by the Washington State Department of Agriculture.

There is nothing but flavor being infused into the Fuji apple. The apple takes on no additional sugars or calories. They are not genetically altered in any way.

The apple is as healthy as ever but now has the new exciting grape flavor.

I mean they were good and all, but I like Fujis as is. And kids that aren't "into fruit", too many by half, probably won't be into fruit flavored like other fruit. I applaud the idea, trying to encourage kids to eat right. At over a buck a piece though this just doesn't make sense to me. Choose good specimens from a store that picks its produce well and you're much better off. Oh and start your kids eating fresh fruits and veggies EARLY. And make them GO OUT AND PLAY!!!

Going to lie down now.

Fruit flavored fruit?

Did I miss a memo?

Get it to taste like a Baked Potato (with all fixins + Bacon) or a Steak and I'm all over it.



Well you could always put some Bacon Flavored Salt on it.



Something sinister about cross breeding apples with grapes ... will thay make wine from it? :)



Would that be winder or cine?
