French biologist Pascal Commenil has introduced a new wrinkle into the high end cosmetics industry- a face cream made from grapes.
In an AFP story, Commenil hopes discriminating consumers will want to 'save face' by paying $130 per jar of the fruity goo, which he justifies by the fact that it takes 10,000 pounds of grapes to make a pound of product.
Is he nuts? This may be sour grapes, but can't they make Champagne with those? Judging by the look on his face, I hope it works better than it tastes...
This may be a new record, I managed to work in at least one bad pun per paragraph. Please forgive me for not leaving them to 'wither on the vine'... Feel free to groan in the comments, I probably deserve it. Probably.
