Also some grapes are in semi-rigid packaging, but some are in bags. What's the difference?

in loose bags will be weighed at checkout, I used to wrk in a supermarket
As for red or green, I prefer red as theyre sweeter and are supposed to be good for the heart. Also green grapes tend to give me loose bowel movements,Comment

You'll have to taste a couple of each before you decide which ones to buy. The colour isn't a certain sign. It depends what they've got in from one day to the next. Had some plums from Tesco's last week which were perfectly sweet and tasty. This week, same packaging, sour to the point of being pretty much inedible.Comment

EU rules ban sale of 'too small' kiwis
Inspectors from the Rural Payments Agency, an executive agency of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), made a random check on his stall, and found a number of his kiwis weighed 58g, four grams below the required minimum of 62g.
Mr Down said that 4g in weight was the equivalent of about one millimeter in diameter.
