At least you know he would be a true one and not like the fake ones you pick up along the way and they dump you when you become friends with their sister and they think they don't like you anymore.......
A great low carb/calorie summer snack is frozen grapes with jello powder on them! You need 0 sugar jello, whatever flavor you like, cherry and raspberry are both delicious!! Put the powder on the grapes, I am pretty sure they have to be damp so the powder sticks, then freeze them!! Trust me they are delicious!!! Perfect for summer!!!
Intense sweetness surpasses cocaine reward in the brain. There's an insane amount of sugar present here. Cotton Candy grapes have double the sugar normal grapes do to begin with...
The same people who engineered cotton candy grapes just came out with gum drop grapes And they are even more candy-like. Edit: I'm so sorry I use speak to text Because I interact with a small baby so my hands are busy.... my phone sucks and makes words suck sometimes.... had to correct a lot.
I've tried the cotton candy and gum drop grapes frozen, but they aren't as good as regular grapes in my opinion. For some reason, they don't taste right. I'll stick to my red grapes
True, but this definitely seems like a great way to make them more tangy and candy-like. I agree with him, these are a problem. Grapes are addictive af
I legit bought these cotton candy grapes like 2 months ago, they taste completely different than normal grapes, even if you don't do any of the extra steps. They are sweet and refreshing and don't have a sour note at all (probably why people add lemon/lime juice) but honestly, if you get the chance, give them a try, it's worth it.
I agree. I was at Ingles last week and I was looking for collard greens and the guy working in the produce dept pretty much chased me down wanting me to try some. They had just got them and he was just as surprised as me. They taste fine right out of the bag. (in my opinion). I'm still gonna try this next time I have some. ✌️
Grapes are already sweet. Just freeze them. I like to keep a container in my freezer so I can add them to a glass of wine to keep it cold, then eat them at the end. So good!!❤❤
I mean I guess it wasn’t the healthiest thing but it isn’t that much sugar. And also considering the amount of grapes there were is wasn’t much at all.
I keep frozen grapes in my freezer all of the time. If you're dealing with heat exhaustion, grab a handful of frozen grapes and sit your butt down. It cools you off in a hurry. I'm diabetic so I won't coat them with sugar. Grapes inherently have more than enough sugar.
ALSO !! ... *TRY Dropping in 3-4 frozen Grapes, into ur glass of wine 🍷.* ( To keep your wine drink - NICE & Refreshingly COOL! without diluting it w/Water!! 🍇🍷🤌🏻)
You know it’s good when you have the horse lips smack going on. Btw it works with green grapes as well. Bit more sour but so good and I sounded like my dude eating them hahah
@@elleohairegular grapes with your favorite jello flavor. Look up jello grapes. You essentially use the powder as he uses the sugar, but on regular grapes. So so good. lol
@Jayla101 and the entirety of the comment was focused on low calorie, not better for diabetics. Had the been brought up, I would not have made a comment.
Grapes are so high in sugar...they keep getting bred to be sweeter and sweeter lol..I think my friend in ag told me cotton candy grapes have 1 gram of sugar per grape
In case you don't want to add extra sugar, just freezing regular sweet and seedless grapes is already good. I learned this about a year ago from a colleague. They have a strange new texture, not as solid as ice, means you can chew them. But it's not for people with teeth very sensitive to cold. Be aware of that. Otherwise I really recommend to try.
“It taste like candy” Do you not remember how much sugar you put in those? 😂😂😂 Edit: aight I get it, you don’t have to keep saying that’s not a lot of sugar. But just listen to my reasoning real quick, grapes are a fruit which have sugar already in them, he is using cotton candy grapes which I’m sure have more sugar in them than a standard grape then he adds lemon and lime juice guess what that’s more sugar, then adds more sugar onto the grapes. To me that’s a lot of sugar. And I know some of you are going to be like oh but that’s not as much sugar as there are in real candy or sodas, those also have a ridiculous amount of sugar in them as well. I don’t need 40 comments telling me that’s not that much sugar when it clearly is.
@@skittlesand_9 soda has a ridiculous amount of sugar in them as well, not sure what your point is. Just saying anything is going to taste really sweet or like “candy” when you put tons of sugar on it.
Thanks for digging up a beloved childhood memory. My Opa used to give this to me when I was a toddler. He passed shortly after. I can't wait to go home and try this again.
@@Chainchop789nope! they're just grapes bred in a certain way. they're actually not even all that sweet..unless you pour sugar all over them like him 😅
@@田桃-c7g Idk the one i used to munch on at whole foods were the sweetest of all the grapes. I worked in the produce department and got to try nearly everything. At least the ones I've had are way too sweet
@@Chainchop789 really? that's super interesting then. there are some batches I've had that are a little on the sweeter side but overall most of the ones I get aren't terribly sweet. maybe it depends where they're coming from
Idk why but i used to not like this guy but his content is pretty wholesome and sometimes actually a helpful food hack. Hope you keep living your best life bro bro
@@charizard4410natural fruits and vegetables don't really exist anymore. Look up 100% natural watermelon, strawberries, or carrots. Everything we eat is designed to look pretty so it looks yummy. EVERYTHING.
@@raziel6896 It’s also designed for high yield as well as pest, draught, and disease resistance, reducing the amount and toxicity of pesticides and herbicides needed to grow them. And of course high yield in unfavorable environments is vital to many countries around the globe.
@@plunksongIn one of his videos he said he wanted kids. It's not a big deal for someone to say this anyway. Yeah, not everyone wants kids but it's just a comment
Fun fact if you leave them in the freezer for longer they will turn into little grape flavored popsicles since they would be completely frozen. Consider letting them freeze for longer for some grape popsicle bites!!!😋
@@EverydayWithBobby I didn't know cotton candy grapes had added sugar in it I thought it was some different breed, stop trying to be a smart 🍑 all the time bobby 😂
What I love about this video is that your freezer looks NORMAL! You don’t have an ‘influencer’ fridge / freezer filled with plastic containers with different types of ice etc. I love how normal you are.
Ive been eating frozen green grapes for years as a summer snack/refreshment, its delicious. Cotton candy make it even better. Im gonna try the added juice and sugar, but I dont think its essential, we'll see! As always, thx for the tip Jordan!
For those who are diabetic, replace the sugar with a box of sugar free lemon or lime jello. You don't need Cotton Candy Grapes, regular seedless green grapes will work.
If you are diabetic you should not be using those zero-calorie sugars because the artificial chemicals in those sugars make it hard for your body to digest anything, they block digestion and that is a problem. It's why a lot of people who are diabetic and they drink diet colas they end up in a worse condition,...fake sugar is not good for you you just actually have to watch your sugar intake.
I made these in culinary class! Only difference was that we only used lemon juice and used jello powder instead for more flavor. My team used a berry mix so it wasn’t my fav but there are so many other jello flavors you can use
Just regular jello mix? I don't know why but I imagined it would taste sour without all the water to dilute the concentrated flavors to make the jello lol. I might try this with sugar free jello, cuz grapes are already sweet enough lol. Do you reccomend a certain flavor to compliment the grapes?
Compared to a the same volume of candy it’s half the auger plus actual healthy things from the acid juice and grapes so it is actually kind of healthy plus after watching the rest of his vids pretty sure he doesn’t care about health 😂
@@CrystalBbyUSAits more just that they are superbly sweet on their own, not that they taste like cotton candy. Imagine eating a normal grape, then replacing the tart with 3 cups of sugar. Absolutely worth trying at least once
Depends on what you mean by nature. These are at least selectively bred (human selection instead of natural selection), and might even be genetically modified to reach a specific goal quickly. Also, if you like pineapple, try honeyglow pineapples. They are more sweet than normal and hurt less (I think they are less acidic and have less bromelain, enzymes in pineapples that break down meat (in this case, our mouths).)
@@AnaVassBlueBasilisk are those the pink pineapples? I've been dying to try those!!! Honestly I don't care if their gmo or freaking cancer grapes, they are amazing!!!
"it tastes like candy" Well yes... Because you just made candy. You took one of the sweetest fruits, a grape, specifically a variety with an even higher sugar content than normal... And you coated them in more sugar. The lemon and lime juice added a bit of a different flavour, but was mostly just to ensure the sugar stuck to the grapes. The result? Candied grapes. There's about 14 grams of sugar in a half cup of grapes, and there's about 32 grapes in a cup of grapes. Very simple math there shows that there's almost a gram of sugar per grape (28 grams in 32 grapes, or 14 grams in 16 grapes, and you added even more sugar. I'm not saying this out of criticism, unless someone is trying to claim this is healthy, I'm just saying it tastes like candy because it quite literally is candy...
Honestly ditch the extras, cotton candy grapes (or candy floss grapes as we call them in the UK) are absolutely delicious and freezing them for a bit does make them even better 👍
I truly love that he behaves about food like I do about animals, literally everything is the best that ever existed because its the feel good topic, and that really warms my heart, the way he talks about food stuff he discovers is the way I talk about animals I met on the street if they let me pet them (if you haven't realized yet, sadly they don't I come at them screaming in high pitch noises because I think they so cute, and contrary to food they run away)
Just imaging that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard those are a problem is cute as most...had you screaming?? I swear you people are bots literal npcs
A few years ago, I paid someone who was staying in the same hotel as I was, in Hawaii, $20 to go out and find some cotton candy grapes, which he said I had to try. I still have him saved in my phone as “Justin the Cotton Candy Grape Man”. 😂
Honestly, you don't need the lemon/lime juice or the sugar. Cotton candy grapes and gumdrop grapes are DELICIOUS. Literally just toss them in the freezer as they are. Let them freeze overnight, and you'll have basically bite sized sorbet that's crazy sweet with no added sugar. It's an addictive treat.
I’ve had these last year. They are definitely delicious. Instead of the sugar, add your favourite spice, whether it be Tajin or just your favorite cajun spice you won’t be disappointed
