One of the most popular varieties
in the U.S., the Thompson's light green color, oval-shaped
berries and sweet taste are a favorite among many. In the
store, look for grape bunches that are well colored with
plump berries well attached to the stems. The grapes you
buy in the store should be ripe and ready to eat; they
will not continue to ripen after they are picked from the
vine. Simply refrigerate your grapes without washing them.
Grapes should keep for about seven days in 30-40° F.
Once you're ready to enjoy your grapes, rinse with cool
water.
