Grape Branch Recipes

First off, what do you call that branch thing that the grape is attached to? Is is the grape branch or does it have a different term? Billy O'Keefe told me it's a grape antler, but there NO google hits for: "google antlers."

So whatever it's called, do people anywhere in the world eat the grape branches? I ate some a few days ago, and it wasn't TOO bad. It was very very sour. But oh so handy, I chased the flavor away with some sweet grapes. It's like the grapes stole all the sweet flavor away from the branches leaving them all sour.

If you ever decide to eat the branch, just make sure you are near a washroom about one hour and fifteen minutes later. You will surely need it!
