Cotton Candy for Grown-Ups.....and it's HEALTHY!

So these were the best find ever.  COTTON CANDY FLAVORED GRAPES.  And they are HEALTHY!  WHAT??!?!?  So I had seen some buzz on Twitter about cotton candy flavored grapes....so I of course had to find them.  In Cincinnati...they seem to be in a lot of the local grocery stores.  I happened to pop into Fresh Market this evening....they were $2.99 a lb (not terrible).  Anyways, they taste EXACTLY like cotton candy.  My mind is actually blown.  I of course...being such the skeptic, came right home and started googling everything I could to prove that somehow these little gems were bad for me.  But guess what?  They aren't.  Turns out....horticulturist David Cain cross-bred concord-like grapes with regular grapes....and POOF....heaven.  Here is the nutrition break down (because OBVI I HAD to know):

Serving size:  1/2 cup
Calories:  50
Fat:  0
Carbs:  15 g
Protein:  1 g
FIber:  1 g
Sugar:  14 g

Compared to regular Green Grapes


Serving size:  1/2 cup
Calories:  53
Fat:  .2 g
Carbs:  14 g
Protein:  1/2 g
Fiber:  .6 g
Sugar:  12 g

So for two more grams of sugar.....I will GLADLY close my eyes and pretend I am at the circus.  Without a doubt.  How about them apples (or grapes in this case)?!?!?!
