   I asked Bing and it spat out Wikipedia's entry:   
      
   "Grapette is a grape-flavored soft drink that was first produced and   
   marketed in 1939 by Benjamin "Tyndle" Fooks. Grapette is now produced   
   by Grapette International, and is marketed in the United States by   
   Walmart as part of its Sam's Choice line of soft drinks."   
      
   A better and much longer answer is provided by Grapette International   
   themselves at https://www.grapette.com/read-more:   
      
   "In the late 80s, Grapette International's chairman, Brooks Rice, met   
   Sam Walton, founder of Walmart. Without wasting words, Walton told him,   
   "I want Grapette in my stores." Rice explained that although he couldn't   
   provide the use of the brand names in the United States, he could offer   
   the flavors that once made the famous brands. Rice also personally   
   pledged that he would fulfill Walton's request to have Grapette and   
   Orangette in his stores someday.   
      
   Soon, Walmart was using some of the authentic Grapette Company flavor   
   profiles in its Sam's Choice line of signature sodas. The flavors fit   
   perfectly within the Sam's Choice brand, offering innovative, quality   
   products at a better value than the leading national brands. But it   
   always felt like something was missing - specifically, the famous   
   Grapette and Orangette brand names.   
      
   In early 2000, Grapette International was able to purchase the U.S.   
   rights to the Grapette and Orangette trademarks, finally reuniting the   
   flavors with their brand names. Now the third generation of founder Paul   
   May's family has given Walmart what Sam Walton requested almost twenty   
   years earlier.   
      
   In 2005, Grapette and Orangette became available exclusively in Walmart   
   stores nationwide."

         Title: SAUSAGE, BREAD AND PEPPER FRITTATA   
    Categories: Cheese/eggs, Italian, Main dish, Vegetables, Seandennis   
         Yield: 8 Servings   
      
         3 tb Extra-virgin olive oil   
         8 oz Sweet Italian sausage,   
              --removed from casings   
              --(about 2 links)   
         1    Large bunch scallions, cut   
              --in 1/2" pieces   
       1/2 ts Kosher salt   
         1    Red bell pepper, cut in   
              --1/2" strips   
         8    Large eggs   
       1/4 c  Milk   
     1 1/2 c  1/2" bread cubes, from a   
              --day-old loaf of country   
              --bread   
       1/4 c  Grated Grana Padano   
      
     Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet   
     over medium heat. Cook the sausage, crumbling with the back of a   
     wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the   
     scallions, season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until   
     the scallions begin to wilt, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add bell pepper,   
     and cook, stirring until wilted but not completely limp, about 8 to   
     10 minutes.   
      
     In a bowl, beat eggs with the milk and remaining salt. Let the bread   
     cubes soak in the egg-milk mixture until moistened, about 2 to 3   
     minutes. Reduce heat under skillet to medium-low, then pour in eggs   
     and bread and let cook until the eggs begin to set around the edges   
     of the pan, about 2 to 3 minutes.   
      
     Sprinkle all over with the grated cheese. Put the skillet in the   
     oven, and bake until frittata is set all the way through and the top   
     is golden, about 18 minutes. Let rest for a few minutes, then run a   
     knife around the edge of the skillet and invert onto a plate or   
     cutting board. Serve in wedges, warm or at room temperature.   
      
     Chef's notes: "Frittata is the quintessential Italian meal. You can   
     flavor it with anything you have on hand, and one of my favorite ways   
     is adding day-old bread with vegetables and sausages. When there is   
     nothing else in the house except eggs, this is the meal to make. From   
     what I recall, sausage, bread and egg frittata was a dish my   
     grandmother in Istria made often whereas the addition of peppers was   
     something more Italian American. It is nonetheless a delicious   
     combination. This recipe makes a great lunch with some salad on the   
     side."
