My grapes are unsettlingly large

I've never seen bigger grapes. Just eaten one and it was a strange experience. Like eating a tiny but very juicy apple.

Will go back to my first choice of sable grapes I think!

Wow they are mutants!

Or the OP had Trump-sized tiny hands

AlisonDonut · 24/03/2024 16:20

What is the variety if you don't mind me asking? It should say on the packet.

Interested in this thread?

My hands are averagely sized.

I think.

Sadly I'm fresh out of bananas for scale.

I had some green grapes like this the other week. Really enjoyed them though.

I have to share this OP

just before Covid we went back to my motherland as we have property there.

We were talking re crops as many in the area farmed and a couple of people told us, "you leave a tomoatoe in the fridge one night and the next day when you open the fridge it has grown. They were not joking as many were breaking the rules there and putting in too much ferlizer/etc into the ground to get bigger crops as well as bulls and cows.

Yes, your grapes look like they are ready to explode.

Grapes have been massive recently. I like them like that!

Whatabouteryallaboutery · 24/03/2024 16:26

Relieved to see this wasn't about haemorrhoids!

I'd be really creeped out by that!

I had some huge ones last week! One even had an extra head growing. I threw that one away Grin

Yourethebeerthief · 24/03/2024 16:28

I like them massive and with an audible bite to them. Marks and Spencer's green ones are like that. Lovely.

dontforgetme · 24/03/2024 16:28

Pressed post too quickly!

Ds6 said they tasted funny.

alphabettispagetti · 24/03/2024 16:39

Sainsburys red seedless ones are ginormous at the moment and somehow delicious despite being quite watery in flavour.

SableGrape · 24/03/2024 16:41

I only had one but didn't enjoy the experience!

Same! Was half expecting to find a picture of someone's piles, and yet I still clicked on it 🙈

Rainynight09 · 24/03/2024 17:34

I bought grapes like that recently. Big juicy things

RichardsGear · 24/03/2024 17:36

Is that all you got in the packet?!

RichardsGear · 24/03/2024 17:36

Obviously I know sold by weight so will get fewer giant ones but, even so, there's hardly any!

FadedRed · 24/03/2024 17:37

Strawberries are also abnormally large too. Still taste good through.

Yes! They're disappointing in general really! 😕😂😂

Ohhh I love a massive grape. Slice up eaten with a slice of cold, not quite ripe banana.

Kpo58 · 24/03/2024 18:27

I bought some large grapes recently. When I got home I discovered that they weren't seedless, so I spent the week cutting them in half and deseeding them for lunches otherwise DD wouldn't eat them. 🙄

@AlisonDonut

Pic attached! 😁
