Is it a Grape or an Apple? NO! Its a GRAPPLE!

I was out grocery shopping today and I found something I just HAD to try....



They are Grapples,  apples that taste like grapes.   I am not kidding.   I can't count the times that I have been happily eating an apple and thought to myself how it could only be better if my apple tasted like fake grapes.....yeah....

They go against everything I believe and am trying to instill in my family, eating healthy and making wise food choices.   I just couldn't help myself though and had to buy these today and try them.

They were nice crunchy, fresh apples but its been about a half hour since I ate it and my mouth still has this weird, sweet after taste to it.   Their website says they have the taste of concord grapes....not so much, its more like that fake grape taste in candy and Popsicles.   My teeth hurt from eating them.   I bought them this morning and just walking by the container you can smell the artificial grape flavor coming off of them.  The funny thing is they don't really taste that much like grape, they taste mostly like an apple, I found the most 'grape' flavoring the closer I got to the core.

  I just don't understand why anyone would want to intentionally ruin an apple by doing this to it.

We Are The Champions!

Just a quick post to share the exciting news!   Logan's basketball team won the championship tournament yesterday!!!


I think everyone was pretty much in shock.  I don't think the team won many, if any games during the season.   Then goes to the tournament and beats both teams that they played, it was amazing!
