Well /ck/?
Red Delicious really only has been selected and cultivated for look and it shows.Great for displaying, don't bite into it.
I will be a Granny Smith guy forever.
I'm usually Granny Smith guy but I had some Cosmic Crisp today and that shit was so juicy and sweet, I might have been converted.
Puny mortals
only a couple months more till harvest time bros. i'm salivating over it already.
i really liked cosmic crisp on “launch” but some of bags i’ve got more recently about half had bad spots spanning 1/3 of the apple. just doesn’t feel worth it but i think it’s due to their total shelf life they sit longer with the blemish so it develops a lot deeper than other apples. thanks for reading
>>22110160My parents refuse to eat other apples they only buy and eat honeycrisp apples.
>no opalterrible image. I am gay for braeburn but they don't sell them anywhere.

>>22110160for baking 1/2 granny smith 1/2 fuji but I'm willing to try cosmic crisp. for eating though granny smith.
>>22110160Apples suck. Give me (in order of better to worse) dates, strawberries, bananas, raspberries, blueberries, peaches, etc etc etc over apples. Not pears though, pears are just apples but worse.
>>22110295Don't forget, on the Olympus >>> all of them: Cherries
>>22110301I've never in my life thought "I'd like to eat a cherry right now". The only time I have one is in an old fashioned
I prefer pears

>>22110160>>22110273the cosmic crisp was developed over more than 20 years at WSU, a cross between the honeycrisp and enterprise apples. the upcoming sunflare apple began development around the same time and should be available in about 3 years, and is poised to be even more popular than the cosmic when it reaches consumers. it's a cross between the honeycrisp and pink lady and is harvested earlier than the cosmic. it's a strikingly beautiful apple that will stand out on shelves.
>>22110291>4. Red DeliciousPost address so I can't beat you with a golf club.
>>22110291>red delicious above cosmic crisp>red delicious above ANYTHING
>>22110415Escape you're groupthink bubble and try a red delicious when it's in season. A good one has no graininess, a delicate floral flavor, low tartness, a light sweetness, and a satisfying thick skin. Might be too subtle for modern palates, but it's a very good apple.
>>22110160honey crisp famalam
>>22110160>Kanzi is Europe's answer to the Honeycrisp question.I kinda want to try one now, I wonder how good they are.
>>22110421>subtleis pseud-speak for "it has no flavor but I'll pretend it does so people think I'm cultured."You belong inside a locker.
>>22110314SLIGHTLY RIPE PEARS FOR THE WIN!!!
>>22110421>I ate the same apple everyday at chow for 12 years in the carceral education complex and now I’ve been buckbroken into liking the red delicious and limiting my horizons Your favorite apple is like eating sand
>>22110460If it's grainy/mealy at all, it's out of season or has been sitting on the shelf far too long. It's not that hard to pick a good apple, retard.
>>22110465>it’s not that hard to pick a good apple And yet you still somehow fail to!
>>22110466This snarky reddit quippy shit doesn't fly irl when I put my fist in your face.Eat a good red delicious or don't. Not my concern. But don't call all red delicious bad because the only ones you've ever tried were picked in December and sat in a school cafeteria pantry for two months.
>>22110314kek
>>22110160i tried pink lady and they weren't good at all. it's mcintosh or fuji for red apples, and granny smith for green
>>22110478He’s so salty about his shitty little apples, lmao kys
>>22110503Kys yourself nigger
I just go for jonagolds or granny's. Solid, reliable, good. In winter I'll sometimes grab a gala
>>22110506Sorry your economy is based on the worst flavors of candy, Stanislaw
>>22110160This is weirdly accurate (for the ones I've stocked). Funnily enough the Kanzis are usually in the packaged towards kids bagged selections, previously Blues Clues at my store. Now we have minions themed pink ladies. Where is Sugarbees, I have some customers that swear by those. Honeycrisp is definitely the number one seller though, second is probably cosmic crisp. Galas do well in the three pound bag, just behind granny.T. Works in produce, I just stock them and talk to customers about them, I personally do not like apples (Asian pears are good though).
>>22110160I buy cosmic crisps because they taste good and also have insanely high fiber.Makes it easier to get close to enough fiber intake.
It's McIntosh / Cortland or nothing.

>>22110160>no mcintoshyou don't even have an apple on the list, anon.
>>22110409damn can't wait to try this
>>22110409That shit kinda looks like Wumpa fruit from Crash Bandicoot.
>>22110409That is a beautifully framed photo. I’ve always found it interesting, the way they grow the individual fruiting branches as units of trees for space efficiency. I wonder if they’re completely proprietary or if you could get a tree?

>>22110160>no ArianeMy fault for expecting any standards from such an amateur.
Most apples aside from G taste basically the same, miss me with the hyperbolic shit names
>>22110813doubtful you could get one. i’m not sure how it works but i believe those are trademarked gmos like monsanto does seeds. gotta be part of their program to get off cuts for splicing.
>>22110160Not reading your cringe wojak shit asshole, go back to twitter
>>22110160why do you people play dolls like thiswojaks are just dolls. you are playing dolls
>>22110314Good post
>>22110160quit playing with dolls.

>>22112545anon that's a plum
>>22110295>Not pears though, pears are just apples but worse. Pears are way better than apples. Problem is, "real" pears go from slightly unripe (best time to pick them), to ripe, to rotten mush, in precisely 3 days after picking. So 90% of widely available pear varieties were bred to be picked unripe and stay so as long as possible (and then turn directly to mush, without going through the ripe phase: hard as a rock on the outside, but the core is brown and sludgy). A proper ripe juicy pear is one of the best fruits ever.
>>22110160Fuji buy only from California.
>>22112545That’s new. Or very old, rather. Appropriately, says it comes from Cornwall and Devon. Says it’s the healthiest apple. I wonder if there are variances in the substrate or ph?
For me? It's Golden DeliciousIf they don't have those at the store, then Pink Lady
I caved today and bought four, they are quite crispy, and sweet. Good stuff.
>>22110160Cox.
>>22110420Red Delicious: amazingly, slightly better than fake apples made out of wax. And with a longer shelf life too!
>>22114464>Cox.Cox are great. Everyone needs Cox in their life.But you can't beat a Bramley for cooking down into sauce or filling that pie.
Jazz are the best>>22114020I agree wholeheartedly that pears are better than apples
>>22110160Johnny Appleseed was propaganda. Apples are a diabetic inducing candy goytrap. Dentists and pharma love that fucking guy.Stuffing bread up your ass is more dignified
>>22114930MY doctor told me the apple is GREAT for diabetes prevention AND it's nature's toothbrush AND it was Hitler's favorite fruit.YOUR doctor is most likely a Mossad agent trying to make your teeth fall out so he can fuck your mouth without obstruction.
>>22114463Cosmic crisps when you get a good batch are fantastic, but sadly it's a roulette between that or getting an inedible batch that's completely devoid of any taste or one that punches you in the face with this awfully bitter, almost chemical aftertaste. It's one of the only apples I can think of with such godawful quality consistency, so it's in "red delicious" tier for me. It's either fuji, braeburn or sweetango for me.
