Human-size bunches of grapes. With faces and hands and an (understandable) wariness regarding Fredbird.

Grapes from California Day is a promotional effort by the California Table Grape Commission. The Cardinals are the fourth of five teams -- the Dodgers, Giants, Orioles and, lastly, the Blue Jays -- to participate. Fans could sample whole grapes and try such spins on classic ballpark food as a turkey bratwurst topped with grape relish. Copies of Green Black Red: Recipes for Cooking and Enjoying California Grapes were awarded to fans as prizes for the games broadcast on the scoreboard between innings.
As best Gut Check could tell, however, grapes played no part in the Kiss Cam. (Nor, for that matter, did Tyler Florence.)

As for the ballpark food, the turkey brat with grape relish was tasty, the relish sweet but not too sweet. On an evening when an Albert Pujols blast and a nifty double play turned by Brendan Ryan weren't enough to overcome the not-so-mighty Milwaukee Brewers, that seemed just right.
