If some mean magician waved their wand and removed all candy from the face of the earth, what would you eat when you’re craving something sweet? Undoubtedly, scores of sweet-seekers would go for grapes. Now, we have no mean magicians at Trader Joe’s (and our candy isn’t going anywhere anytime soon), and yet, don’t Grapes sound like a great snack right now?

We offer different grape varieties depending on what’s in season, and currently, we’re featuring a Red and Green Grapes Duo. Grown for us in California’s San Joaquin Valley, the Red  are of the Krissy variety (solid red in color, with a crisp crunch, and sweet flavor), and the Green are of the Ivory variety (also sweet and crisp, but with an added hint of tartness). Together, they’re a dynamic Duo for beach and BBQ adventures, and unlike candy, they can have a cooling effect in the heat, especially when chilled or even frozen.
