Flavor Spotlight: Grape.

This is a new blog collum I call 'Flavor Spotlight'. Here I'll be reviewing families of smackers such as this one....Grape!

Grape has been a staple in the Bonne Bell company since the 70s. It started out with the very outrageous flavor Sour Grape. Soon after Crush Grape joined in the Lip Smacker craze! Grape stuck around until the late 90s when it dissappered into the Bonne Bell vault. A Grape Jelly lip smacker did debut but soon vanished somewhere around '95-'98 time frame.

This wouldn't be the last time Grape flourished though! The collaberation between Coca Cola and Bonne Bell produced a Fanta Grape smacker in 2008 and in 2009 a limited edition halloween Ghoulish Grape made it's mark! Easter 2010 brought us a Starburst Jellybean Grape smacker also. Fans of the vintage Smackers have been asking for a new Sour Grape as of late, you never know what the future may hold.

These are some of the Grapes in my personal collection!
-Fanta Grape -Crush Grape -Grape Jelly
-Ghoulish Grape -Fanta Grape liquid -Starburst Jellybean Original Grape
