Bought some of these in Windhoek – delicious! According to the packaging, the grapples came from Stellenbosch (at least, that is where they were packed)
Now trying to find some in Cape Town but have not been able to track down any in the supermarkets in Cape Town.
Help please?

Okay, scratch that – apparently no extra sugar. But heck, that doesn’t make ‘em any less weird.

More like helps moms to feed their kids more sugar. Those suckers must be laden with the stuff.

I like the way the label tries to get you to “Say Grape-L” as opposed to straight-up ‘grapple’ – perhaps to avoid the connotation of “grappling to comprehend this lunacy.”
