...GRAPPLES!
Anytime you see an ingredients list on a package of apples, run to the farmers' market and hug your local farmer and maybe roll around on the produce in a fit of kitty-in-a-field-of-catnip ecstasy.
This isn't the result of the Future Farmers of America field trip to the Island of Dr. Moreau. It's straight-up injection infusion into the apple of "natural and artificial grape flavors", which is like Spanx or collagen injections for produce with a wonky super-ego.
Check it: the anthropomorphized Grapples look freaking thrilled to not be themselves anymore. Much like makeover winners with lots of rejection issues, Grapples virtually cry out "Eat me!"
But, I think they're the laughing-on-the-outside/crying-on-the-inside kind of fruit, so I won't.
Coming soon: blueberries that taste like gravy.

But they actually arent that bad. I get them periodicly when I see them, because I love grape, and like the crunch of apples. We dont get good golden delicious or granny smiths, which are the only apples I like eating as is.
Actually, they don't inject them, the run them thru a water bath and the flavor is the only thing that gets infused in them.
Okay, I stand corrected. The artificial grape flavor isn't injected, but infused into the apple. So, they take a completely healthy, natural apple and infuse it with artificial grape flavor. Much better.
And the majority of the flavoring isn't artificial...
Ah hah, oh wow, America. How about vegetables that taste like beef aimed for vegetarians. Apples infused in slaughter blood etc.
I just came across grapples yesterday, and I must say they are quite yummy :)
But I was expecting them to taste like a real grape..they taste like artificial grape flavouring, you know what I mean?
Still good though :)
I had one, it was fun to eat and yummy. They are expensive though, so I think this was a one time treat for me! Can get the same taste by drinking grape juice while eating an apple, for half the cost!
Where can you get these blueberries? This is the only web-hit when searching for blueberries that taste like gravy. Do you have to pre-order them somewhere? Funny about the apples though. Never thought they could cross-breed them like that.
You guys are funny.
So many skeptics! Gravy flavored blueberries is a bit of a stretch, at least grapes and apples are both fruits! That's like saying President Obama is Portugese...
They are infused with artificial grape flavor (called methyl anthranilate) that is used as a non-lethal chemical bird repellent.
