False advertisement - Trading Standards issue :p

I'd call them white grapes, even though they are obviously green. And black grapes even though they are a red/purple.

Come to think of it, it is really mixed up!

I'm leaving this discussion with the thought that both taste nice - and...my argument breaks down.

I'm going to be up all night thinking about this now :S

That's where it gets confusing, as you're now talking about grape varieties.

Table grapes have colouring to show their groupings. There are red, blue-black and green.

In principal you could argue that Green Table Grapes are officially, therefore called green grapes, but still belong to the white grape family.

Well, that's how I understand it anyway.
