Grapples are currently being test marketed with the plan to distribute them
nation-wdie in the Fall. They are Fuji apples enhanced with Concord grape
flavor. Here is what the Daily Camera in Boulder has to say about them...

"They're not gassed or injected or mutated. They're bathed for several days
in a patented, natural grape formula whose specifics spokespeople didn't want
to release.

Blair McHaney, co-owner of Get Fit Foods, said he has received a 92 percent
favorable response to the fruit on an online feedback forum. The biggest
fans: Kids bored with Mother Nature.

Their makers, Washington-based C&O Nursery and Get Fit Foods, have since sold
a half-million four-packs. "
