LAST week while shopping in one of the supermarket chains in Puchong, we came across some red grapes from China on promotion. �

They tasted sweet, in fact, unusually sweet for this variety of grapes and we bought a fair amount.�

On reaching home, we soaked and washed the grapes before consumption. The surprise was, the sweetness was no longer there. It tasted a bit sour, nothing near the sweetness before being washed.�

Our suspicion is the grapes could have been soaked in a sugary substance that could be detrimental to our health.��

The same grapes were still on promotion the next day. I complained to one of the supermarket attendants and urged him to investigate it. �

UNSUSPECTING CUSTOMER,
Tuaran, Sabah.
