I don't have a name for the name I've never heard. The whole is a berry.
The grape assertion is provocative. I now want to put grapes in the microwave to see if they catch fire.

I usually take my grapes fermented at room temperature and there’s no chance of that going in the microwave! As for drupelets, I thought that was a problem for aging ladies! You can see where my mind is today!

Donna said...

No! Didn't know that!

I did not know either drupelets or that grapes catch fire...but why would one put grapes in the microwave? Drupelets..could be compared to some people's brains.

Yet something else I did not know.

Jeanie said...

I did not know that but with the high sugar content it makes sense!

Under what conditions do grapes catch fire in the microwave? It's better to tell me so I don't experiment and burn the house. I don't have a word to substitute for drupelet. It's a cool word, though.

Love,
Janie

Sandra Cox said...
