Default Weird grape shapes

This is not about tomatoes.
I didn't know where else to ask about this,so I picked here.


I went to Central Market because they had a big Garlic Fest. They had the Ail Rose de Lautrec garlic! So while I was greedily buying garlic, I saw this weird shaped fruit.
They were GRAPES! They are called Moon Drops and Witch Fingers. They were as long as my pointy finger! They tasted really sweet. Does anyone know about these and if they are hybrids? Thanks

They are both hybrids and considered to be table grapes.
Both come out of California.

Thanks Worth!

I looked in the fridge to get some and they're already gone! I guess my family liked them

My local super market also has Cotton Candy grapes. They are awesome and taste just like cotton candy...but they are grapes.
