So Im fine with any color grape although I find greens to be bitter more often than sweet. They also obviously discolor faster and I find that off-putting as well.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Nov 2022, 7:44pmFair enough. Light v. dark grapes. The lighter, the more likely to eat.

Re: Grapes
Are red grapes available as seedless? I've only had them with seeds, which turned me off them, so we only buy green. I like my grapes (like I like my oranges* and apples) tart, so I lean towards bitter.revbob wrote: ↑16 Nov 2022, 7:54pmSo Im fine with any color grape although I find greens to be bitter more often than sweet.

Re: Grapes
I'm with TB on the orange front. I started buying Spanish oranges a couple of years back and can't get enough of them now, the bigger the better. Ideally, they should have no pips, peel like satsumas and be incredibly juicy and, I would also add, flavourful too.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Nov 2022, 8:17pmAre red grapes available as seedless?

Re: Grapes
Yeah you can get red in seedless form, perhaps not in your godless country though. As for oranges they dont agree with my digestive system so I no longer eat them.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Nov 2022, 8:17pmAre red grapes available as seedless?

Re: Grapes
Bah! I buy clementines, but only because I can't find mandarins here in Justinia (back in Western Canada, they're known as Christmas oranges and also, uh, Asian slur oranges). Mandarins rule, but clementines are decent substitutes.Low Down Low wrote: ↑16 Nov 2022, 8:36pmI'm with TB on the orange front.

You ever try candy floss grapes? Decadently delicious.
