» feistyfemale56 - Re: What a wealth of information!
I agree with Jerri...lots of great information that you've provided here in an easy-to-read, and digest, manner.I found it kind of sad and ironic that though as consumers increasingly seek organic foods, people-less tractors will soon be running the fields.

In response to What a wealth of information! posted by jerrib:If you like grapes, you'll love grapples, which are grape-flavored apples. They showed up early on in my supermarket.
Longans are sometimes available in upscale shops.

In response to Re: Re: What a wealth of information! posted by cbk:Are you in the eastern US, Connie? We don't always get new items right away. I'm really surprised at not having "grapples" here, as apples are a big agricultural product here.

In response to Re: Re: Re: What a wealth of information! posted by jerrib:Yes, North Carolina. In the advertising flyer from my supermarket I noticed there was a blurb about the grapples, and made it a point to see what they were like. I imagine they were available sooner on the west coast.
