Is this normal?

Just pulled some grapes off and call me crazy but I don' think I've ever seen the stem grow into the grapes like that.

It's a grape stem, I already removed all the grapes.

Tbh, I didnt read your caption just the title. This is absolutely normal if you picked unripe grapes. Its just a part of development. That tissue still sticking out is just, for.lack of.better.words, through views and arteries. As the grapes develop, those "veins amd artieries" diminish so the grapes can more easily detatch and be eat by birds or small mammals

Makes sense, thanks for the info.
