Do you ever feel like you are the last one to know things????? Mom says she does - she overheard some ladies talking recently about Cotton Candy Grapes - she had never heard of them before and after much searching she found some and OMD - watching her eating them was like watching someone fill up a gumball machine! Now for the few of you who haven't heard of these (probably our overseas readers) these grapes REALLY do taste like Cotton Candy (or Fairy Floss as it is called in other parts of the world) and the best thing for Mom is they are extremely low in acidity. Mom doesn't eat a lot of grapes as the acidity in them burns her mouths and causes painful ulcers (so do strawberries and citrus fruits) but she had no problems with these at all. Sadly after talking to guy in the fruit and veggie section Mom also learned they are only available for about 3-4 weeks out of each year - so Mom bought extra and is going to freeze them! Of coarse it is TOTALLY unfair that we are not allowed to try them as grapes are extremely toxic to dogs - but Mom did buy us some doggie treats while she was shopping so all is forgiven :)
We have never heard of them. I do love frozen grapes though.
ReplyDeleteOMD, my Mum is droooooling at the thought of cotton candy grapes, yum, yum!!!

you are not the last... the mama said huh? and what? she never heard about that grapes.... they are on our shopping list now, butt I have some doubts if we have them here... I heard that through the grapevine hehehehe
ReplyDeleteHmmm, those grapes look delicious! It is too bad we dogs cannot try grapes but at least your mom bought you some yummy dog treats instead! She is such a good mom!
ReplyDeleteCotton candy grapes? Never heard of that!
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of those, but now if I see them I'm going to buy some to try. Hey guys, you have your bully sticks and liver treats, never mind about leaving us with the grapes :D
ReplyDeleteHeads up - what? I eat grapes often. I've never heard of these and must investigate where to find them in our area. They sound marvelous! Then again, I might have a hard time (as usual) keeping dad out of my food. Snorts with piggy laughter. Thanks for the tip my friends. Have an awesome day. XOXO - Bacon
ReplyDeleteWow!! They sound fantastic

We never heard of those before. We'll have to tell ghostwriter to watch out for them at the supermarket!
ReplyDeleteOMD! Be still my heart. I have NEVER heard of these grapes and LOVE cotton candy! I'm on a new search to find some of these tasty human treats.
ReplyDeleteHey, so long as they don't forget the doggie treat it's OK, right?
ReplyDeleteNo, I have never heard of them, how unusual. Glad you enjoyed them.

We have never heard of these before and it looks like many others are in the same boat. Your mom is really a trend setting on this one!

Our mom is addicted to those things! She just loves them! They should come out with a grape us pups are allowed to have, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteCammie!
We've never heard of them before. We'll have to tell mom to check our grocery store this week. We see they are green and she rarely buys green grapes. Thanks for letting us know, guys!
ReplyDeleteWe've never seen or heard of them either. You'll have to fill up on them in the short season. Hope it isn't the END of the season for you...
ReplyDeleteNever heard of them ever! Must hunt for them now!
ReplyDeleteOMD, we've had them in the store for years, butts Ma's never tried them...maybe she will, since your MOms loves them so much! Oh, and Ma says frozen grapes are DELISH! whatevers, I've never had any! pfffffft! Oh, in our neck of the woods, we've also had APPLE and WATERMELON, grapes too!

My Auntie Jen has a culinary degree and introduced these to my Mom a few weeks ago. Since I am not allowed to eat them, Mom forgot all about them, but now says they are on her shopping list. I wonder what she is going to get me...
ReplyDeleteHere in SC it took me 3 years to find them. I found them at Publix and though pricey, they were wonderful. Due to the short time frame I was always too late.
ReplyDeleteThat just sounds weird! Mom eats grapes, but never had these.
ReplyDeleteI have never, ever heard of them, could they possibly only be available in Florida? Are they made in another country other than the U.S., that could be why we haven't heard of them DakotasDen
ReplyDeleteWell we've never heard of them, they must be a southern thing! Love Dolly
