Has anyone else tried these things?

I had gotten tired of apples because they all start tasting the same. However these are apples with a Grape flavor and have an amazing taste.

These are not genetically engineered fruits.

They have totally revised what used to be one of my favorite fruits.

I wonder how they would taste in pie

Probably pretty grappy.

Haven't heard of them but they sound fantastic.
I'm a big fan of those pear tasting apples. Or are they apple tasting pears?

I tried Grapples a couple of times, then the novelty wore off.

Asian pears (or "Ya" pears) are awesome though.

Pink Lady apples reign supreme.

Sorely disappointed in Grapples! You can barely taste the artificial injection of grape and you have to pay out the nose for them...

This GRAPPLE fad has already come and gone around these parts.

I loved the taste, personally, but even I eventually realized that the outrageous price point wasn't worth anything beyond the novelty.

Then again, I'd love to see Crystal Pepsi make a comeback.


[... These incantations maybe not so much ...]

I like these a lot, but way too expensive.

They smell nice, but taste like an apple. I'll stick with the normal kind of apples.

Nothing beats a sweet, crisp fuji apple.

Same with the above poster...good but too expensive...this really got me thinking of hybrid fruits/vegetables, are there any others? I know they are selling brocoflower now....taste more like califlower though...

This isn't a gen-eng hybrid though, they just take apples and soak them in grape juice or something like that.

I hear FlamesAddiction is frantically working in his lab to create a genetic hybrid of a cats arse and horseradish sauce flavoured McRib

Grapples are good but Ambrosia is still the apple king.

No no, all you have to do is soak a cats arse in the sauce, see the post above.

I'm thinking a small #1 or #2 diaper and some plastic wrap would probably work.
