Grapes

There are two categories of grapes grown around the world: white (also called green) and black (often referred to as red). White grapes are actually green to greenish yellow, and black grapes range from reddish to the deepest of purple. Americans eat mostly seedless grapes—and raisins, which are of course dried grapes—but in fact, breeding out the seeds also breeds out much of the flavor. So varieties with seeds—muscat, Niagara, and Concord—are making a bit of a comeback.

Preparing: Pesticides are used heavily on grapes, so rinse them very well or consider buying organic.

Other Fruits you can use: blueberries, cherries; also see Currants.
