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. blink.gif 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. sick.gif]

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! ohmy.gif

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.

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.
