Tag: Muscadine skin

Native to the southeastern United States, muscadine grapes are a treasured seasonal fruit with a unique, thick skin and sweet flavor. Yes, you can eat them raw, but the experience is different from eating typical table grapes due to their texture and seeds.

While standard table grapes are eaten whole without a second thought, the question of whether you are supposed to eat muscadine skin is common due to its distinctly thicker texture. The short answer is yes, muscadine skin is edible and many choose to eat it, but personal preference for its unique flavor and chewiness plays a major role.
