Ok, ok, so there’s Kool-Aid involved, but there are worse snacks, by far. And I’m pretty sure that eating a pound of grapes cancels out the fake stuff. But I’ll get back to you on that math.

How do you sweeten grapes?

You can easily sweeten grapes by washing them, coating in egg white, and then sugar. Then you freeze and eat!

Can you freeze seedless grapes?

Absolutely! Most people prefer them frozen!

What to do with lots of grapes?

1. Cool Off with Frozen Grapes. Forget ice cream or Popsicles. 
2. Create an Icy Slushie. 
3. Turn Up the Flavor with Roasted Grapes. 
4. Get Creative with Your Kabobs. 
5. Give Salsa a Fresh Twist. 
6. Top Your Salad with a Homemade Dressing.

I don’t even know why anyone stores grapes in the fridge. They become a magical, delicious treat when frozen. My daughter called them ice cream. I think they taste like Sour Patch kids. Either way, not bad for humble grapes.
