A YouTuber splashed out £75 on a bunch of luxury grapes from Harrods and said they tasted just like the ones from a supermarket.

Carmie Selitto, 26, bought the extravagant fruit on a whim while shopping with his parents at the iconic department store in Knightsbridge, London, on Monday (Jan 20).

Intrigued by their premium presentation, Carmie wanted to see if the costly grapes were worth the hefty price tag.

The luxury grapes, imported from Japan, were double the size of regular ones and came in an elegant brown bag with Japanese branding.

But despite their impressive size and lavish packaging, Carmie was left underwhelmed revealing they were no better than the £3 grapes he later bought from M&S.

Carmie, from Shepherd's Bush, London, said: "They looked like mini apples."

"The way they were presented was insane. "

"But as soon as I took the first bite, I knew I had wasted my money."

"They were really juicy and yummy but I just can't justify spending £75 on grapes."

"I'd always go for the M&S grapes they're way more in my price range and tastes almost same."

"I was obviously disappointed but I guess it's a funny story."
