wmw999 2,588 #3 December 28, 2013 He's got the description just right. Grapple. They're weird, which is why every kid wants one, generally only once -- because they're weird. The texture when I bought them (they come in plastic-bubble 4-packs) was that of an old apple; not real appealing. But yeah, they did taste like grape juice-infused apples.

wmw999 2,588 #6 December 28, 2013 They've been around a long time; I think I bought them in the late 80's or early 90's, I think. I have a feeling that at any given grocery store, they last a few years, lose their customers, and then come back again a few years later, when there are all new customers.

quade 4 #7 December 28, 2013 Okay, from the web site: QuoteThis Patented Process is complex and the ingredient mix primarily includes concentrated grape flavor and pure water (USPP #7,824,723). All ingredients are USDA and FDA approved and the process has been licensed by the Washington State Department of Agriculture. I see. They've taken something perfectly normal and healthy, and "infused" it with shit to make it taste "better" and sell it for a higher price. /sigh Whoever thought of this needs a punch in the nuts.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 2 #10 December 28, 2013 Hybridization of fruits is a centuries-old practice. Yes, I know this is infusation, and not hybridization, but the point is still made.
