Looks like grapes

Another person got got with these on the San Diego forum. These are muscadines.

Always happens each year.
I like them better than jaboticabas in some ways as they have a better flesh to seed ratio and the selected varieties can get bigger than golf balls.

I thought the exact same thing when I saw these at 99 Ranch, but my market had them clearly labeled as muscadines

Muscadines, as others have stated. I'm not sure what variety, probably Paulk or whatever other varieties Paulk Vineyards is growing predominantly. At least where I live, I never see anything other than Paulk branded muscadines, doesn't matter what grocery. The last decade or so, I've seen muscadines in at least half a dozen (maybe a dozen) different grocery chains in three states; I can't recall ever seeing a brand other than Paulk. At least they're great tasting muscadines.

My question is: How were these fruits labeled at the Asian supermarket?

Cottle Farms bronze and black muscadines are available at supermarkets here from Aug-Sept/early Oct (NC grown). Season recently ended.

Bizarre that some Asian markets are labeling muscadines as jabos. Wonder where they're grown

I am sure they've figured it out that something labeled jaboticaba outsells muscadine 10:1 and this is on purpose. Why bother selling "muscadine grapes" when you can sell "jaboticaba" and cash out.

You can buy muscadines wholesale from Paulk; presumably other muscadines growers with a large enough production would also do this.

I have never seen Cottle Farms. I guess Paulk has the Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee markets covered; they're in Georgia, so a little closer than Cottle.

Those are probably the "Supreme" variety from Isons. They make up the majority of commercial production for fresh eating black muscadines.
