I bought four GRAPPLES yesterday. Never heard of them before. Looks like a regular apple, but tastes like grapes. The texture is the same as an apple. The taste is very good. Anyone else try them?

They grow naturally near Three Mile Island and Chernoble but I believe the signs say you shouldn't eat them...that probably explains all the hairless racoons..:thinking:

wiki says:

Grāpple (pronounced Grape-L) is the registered brand name for a commercially marketed apple that is supposed to taste like a grape. The product is created by soaking a Fuji apple in artificial grape flavoring (according to the ingredients listed on the label).

Yes! Yes! i have had these! they are pretty good, but kind of expensive. Its such a weird sensation to be biting into an apple that tastes ans smells like a grape. I agree they were pretty good tho. :)
