A question of Grapes?

There is a question that's been on my mind for some time: Why is it that dark (Red, Blue, Black or whatever you will call them) are so much better than the green ones? At least that's how it seems to be this summer.
The green ones might be all right - but that's it! The dark ones however have so much more taste and character.

So why is it that all the supermarkets around here seem to have suddenly switched to selling only green (or white) grapes? Is it some sort of conspiracy? Don't they know that I need my fix?


Confused? Well, maybe I should explain: It all started out with me developing a severe case of grape-addiction some time during the spring. I've allways eaten grapes but that has sort of been it - unless they were destined for winemaking they were just, well grapes, to me. But then it all changed:

It was a somewhat grey Tuesday afternoon and I had actually only entered the local super market to buy som pasta - but on my way to the pasta I passed the Fruit and Vegetable department. And there they were - the grapes.
Actually it was a small mountain of them: Dark and seedless grapes from Chile. I stopped, picked one up and studied it for a while, and then decided to buy some. And right there and then I was hooked. Since that day I have bought what must be a gazilion grapes.

The grapes has followed me out into the garden, or been with my at my desk when I've been writing till past midnight.

Some to think of it, maybe I should confess - I am a Llama, and I am addicted to black, seedless grapes. There, I said it. Now give back my black grapes!
