Purdy!


I hear those things only grow in the SOUTH. They sure do taste good, but some folks, like those folks UP NORTH can't grow them. I hope you aren't using this picture as an image of HATE or else these thangs may get outlawed!

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I like muscadines pretty good, but I think I like scuppernongs better. We have both, but ours aren't in yet. We will be having a bumper crop too! We end up eating more than we pick. We stand out by the vines for an hour sometimes just picking and eating. YUUUUUUUUM!

Martha,

I did think about making wine, but then I thought...We'd have to have communion everyday at home until it was gone.

:lol: You should really put a "spew" alert on some of these before you post them!

We see how you are now! Save the good stuff for home & serve
the Welch's to everyone at church!

Reminds me of the first time I took communion at an independent
church while visiting & their grape juice didn't look like COGOP
grape juice. I was sweatin' bullets for a few minutes & waiting for
someone else to try it out! (I wasn't the only one either!)

They had sparkling grape juice or something of that sort!

It must have been a Charismatic church. They have to remain bubbly or they lose their 501c.

Isn't the skin rather tough, and sour? Kind of reminds me of some southerners...

Scuppernongs are generally a bit bigger than the muscadines Shellie shows. The skin IS a bit tough, but the inside of the skin is where the SWEETEST part resides. I guess if you just judged them by their skin, you would never know that! :twisted:

They have a similar taste, but just slightly different. If you ever see Muscadine juice or Scuppernong juice at a farmer's market, get some. It tastes just like the fruit, but it is almost $10 a bottle!
