“I Recommend Eating Grapes”

A refreshing, full of taste, and easy to eat fruit always hits the spot. I prefer my grapes to be seedless so that I can eat 6 at a time and not worry about swallowing twelve to fifteen seeds. Grapes come in different colors: red grapes, green grapes, purple grapes, and even black grapes. Red and purple grapes are usually sweeter than green grapes which are usually sour and thicker to bite into. To me, grapes are a form of healthy candy. When I go into my room, late at night to escape everything that’s around me, when there’s grapes in the house, I always take the same green bowl we bought in Target to put the grapes in. I take the grapes out of the refrigerator, I like them cold, and wash them first. Then I take off all the stems that the grapes hang on to and put them inside of the green bowl. I then grab a cup of water to go and that’s my late night snack. The taste of the first grape is like a volcanic explosion of flavor in your mouth. The feeling that comes with a sweet and cold treat is like no other. The happiness that flows through my body after I eat the first handful of grapes is something unique. The first time I ate a grape was when I first came to America. I was more of a candy and junk food type of person, but when I ate my first grape, my whole perspective changed. There it was, a healthy alternative that had the exact same effect as eating a skittle or a jolly rancher. The smooth skin layer on the outside of the grape combined with the juicy burst of flavor inside of the grape makes the whole experience complete. I recommend you take a handful of seedless, fresh grapes and just eat them all at once. You would have discovered what a true healthy snack really is. It’s sweet, juicy, smooth, delicate, and full of flavor. I recommend that after a stressful day at school or work, you end your night with a bowl of grapes instead of ordering takeout or McDonald’s and waking up with an upset stomach. I recommend eating grapes if you want to feel the same joy and happiness that me and the people of the Middle East experienced 6000-8000 years ago. I recommend eating grapes. You won’t regret it.
