Redesigning The Fake Plastic Grape

November 21st, 2006

How many times have you almost eaten a fake, plastic apple?

Well, if you’re me — the answer is “pretty often.” That’s because the technology behind fake plastic apples, fake plastic pears, fake plastic bananas, fake plastic organges and fake plastic pomegrantes have grown in leaps and bounds since the 50’s and have fooled many a hungy kitchen-dweller. And while my teeth don’t particularly enjoy biting into the tough outer shell of a machine-made fruit, they also get pretty impressed by being fooled like that.

But the fake plastic grape? Yeah, not so much.
