I don't know why, but just today (in Math class) I realized that grape soda and a lot of "grape" flavored things don't really taste like grape. Seriously. For some strange reason, I don't think grapes really taste like anything. They're just kinda. Sweet or sour and kinda watery. Aaagh! Or maybe all the grapes I've had just happen to be tasteless. Is it just me?

WHY DON'T GRAPE FLAVORED THINGS TASTE LIKE GRAPES?! Discuss.

[Oh yeah and Turkey Hill Farm banana split ice cream is disgusting. Don't eat it or you get overwhelmed by this horrible artificial banana flavor. ]

You're right. Like grape medicine or grape juice. Or even grape Jolly Ranchers. What DO grapes taste like anyway? To me, they're mostly water and maybe a little sweetness/tartness. =P Weird.

I've never thought about this, but the more I do, everything grape-flavored doesn't taste like a friggin grape. Actually, I don't really like anything that's grape flavored, period. I dunno, that's just me.

Yenno, the grape Capri Suns sorta taste like grapes. Sort of.

ARTIFICIALLY FLAVORED!

And my global teacher told me that even "naturally flavored" things aren't natural. They're just developed in labs to seem natural or something like that. I don't remember. All I know is that they're not natural.

Pretty much only organic things are natural.

hmm i never thought of that or it really never occured to me.. my brother loves any thing grap but then again he likes mixing sodas together..don't ask me i have no idea why. but it is true grape soda doesn't taste like grape its more like sour and sweet you know? well some grapes i've had were either really sweet or sour. i like green ones =]

Haha. Yeah, grape soda tastes nothing like grapes.

i loooooove grapes they are so good!!! but actually i decided to buy a grape drink in the cafeteria. mind you it said "100% grape". it tasted nothing like grape and it was sooooooooo sweet! so sweet i couldn't drink it!

Actually I don't really like grapes. I like bananas. I think I've explained it before buuut. Bananas aren't messy (no juice to squirt out everywhere), are available all year long, have no seeds to pick out, are convenient to carry around, and are NEVER EVER sour.

Really, have you ever had a sour banana before?

Yea thats why its called artificial flavoring [sp]

Quite funny I use to bug people about this subject when I was little and they use to just shrug me off and say 'I don't know'. I don't like real grapes although I'll drink the soda type grape... Odd I suppose. I can't drink grape soda anymore though.

yuck. i never liked grape soda. even though all the grape drinks taste bad, i still like grapes! yummm.
