   @jessamyn @waldoj Oversized grapes like that are so awful. Flavorless, bad texture, and even if they don't have seeds the center is like an undeveloped seed itself. Standard agricultural priced-by-weight scam where the produce is optimized for weight yield and nothing else.

     @jessamyn You’re the second person to mention this! I should have written “seed-bearing” or something.

     @waldoj I never thought about it before but for everything EXCEPT GRAPES seeded means with seeds removed. But I would just like to complain about these giant grapes which I got which are called Autumncrisp and are, I guess, crisp but too large and totally flavorless. If grapes-with-seeds are tastier than these, I'm all for them.

     @waldoj I voted wrong because I had a brain blip where I forgot that seeded means "with seeds removed" and not "with seeds" WHAT IS ENGLISH. https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/seeded
