Grapple

[Mr. Bloom]

I think we have a muscadine vine on our back fence, but because of a rogue tree that gives it too much shade, it doesn't produce. Or maybe it's done producing, I dunno.

I grew up with one on an arbor next to our kitchen window...all it needs is morning sun...and it will grow and grow and grow and grow.

I liked the effect of sun filtered through the green leaves because we were too lazy to trim it...

Frozen Grapes
Grapple..

CC - I was introduced to them on MS training rides. One of the volunteers that ran a rest-stop would have frozen grapes for us. On a hot day, very refreshing. They had been in her icechest for a while, so weren't rock solid. Since it's summer in your part of the world, take a bunch of grapes, rinse, pat dry, freeze, and eat! Cold crunchy snack that's good for you.

I eat frozen blueberries too. Started that when I was a kid living in Michigan, and a neighbor (who I babysat for) brough ME a whole gallon of berries from her father's farm. I promptly froze them, then would raid the freezer all summer long for my snacks. Mrs.E. also brought berries for the family - which Mom made into muffins and pancakes, but I got a whole gallon all my own.

Frozen Blueberries I understand and buy them at our local shopping market..

Frozen grapes just sound a bit odd...Then again alot of the foods you guys get to eat on organized centuries are just odd..
I don't get(understand) what you guys in the US eat..

But CC, I'm in Canada and I lurve frozen grapes. I'm especially partial to the green ones. Also frozen raspberries, but that's another story.

You don't want to know what I paid FedEx to get fresh frozen raspberries from a friend in the Seattle area. I was in raspberry heaven for a while. (the price was slightly less that what I would have paid at the grocery store for the same weight in frozen berries)

Frozen grapes?
Hmmm, I don't think I could cope. Anything frozen sends me straight through the roof - well, not literally, but you know what I mean!
Ouch!
They would probably be very nice though (if my teeth could just behave!)

I would have thought they would go solid as a rock like frozen strawberries and raspberries, given the high water content...

And yet Firenze loves frozen raspberries... do you people all have stell teeth- or do you let these things partially defrost???

[Mr. Bloom]

I think they soften up quickly in the mouth.

I will admit that my teeth are very sensitive to cold and I understand your reservation.

[bmccasland]

The grapes were partially defrosted when I ate them - more like the "slush" stage. So they weren't rock hard, or severely cold. And it was 95 F or felt like it.

(and I use Crest Sensitive toothpaste. We'll find out the verdict about long time use when I see my dentist on thursday)
