Organic Grapes

Grapes are fruits that grow on vines. "Organic" means they were grown without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms, following USDA National Organic Program standards. They are typically harvested by hand or machine.

Grapes are eaten fresh as a fruit snack or used to make juice, wine, and raisins. In packaged foods, they often appear as whole fruit pieces, juice, or flavorings in items like salad dressings, juices, and frozen desserts.

Grapes are a source of natural sugars, fiber, and various antioxidants like resveratrol. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers grapes and grape juice safe for consumption. International bodies like the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated grape-derived ingredients. While generally considered healthy, their natural sugar content should be considered as part of a balanced diet.
