We all like the cherry, but not much else. Nobody will eat the grape at
all. Grape used to be my favorite flavor as a child. But I was very ill as
a teen and unable to keep anything down. The Dr. told my mom to give me
whatever I wanted to drink so I wouldn't get dehydrated. I wanted grape
juice. The purple stuff. It tasted so good, I swigged down the big glass
she gave me and up it came. Since then just the smell of anything grape
puts me off.
