"Looks Like An Apple. Tastes Like A Grape."
Yep, that's a Grapple, alright!
So you're saying to yourself, "GA, what in the hell are you talking about?" I'm talking about this enchanging fruit I picked up from the grocery store yesterday. (Sidenote: The shocking part of this is that I bought fruit while at the grocery store. Not-so-shocking part is that I bought something completely random. There, I made the joke before you, dear reader, could get to it).
It feels like you're eating an apple, but wait a minute...what is that? What is that rush of grape Kool-Aid I'm tasting? How can this happen?
From the website:
Grāpple® brand apples begin as a Washington Extra Fancy Fuji Apple. Of all
apples this is the one that takes on the grape flavor best. This Patent
Pending
process is complex and the ingredient mix primarily includes
concentrated grape
flavor and pure water. All ingredients are USDA and FDA
approved and the process
has been licensed by the Washington State
Department of Agriculture.
There is nothing but flavor being infused
into the Fuji apple. The apple
takes on no additional sugars or calories.
They are not genetically altered in
any way. The apple is as healthy as ever
but now has the new exciting grape
flavor.
So there you have it. It's an apple with grape flavoring infused in it. I don't know how these crazy fuckers did it, but I'll tell you one thing: God is jealous He didn't come up with it himself.
