Honey Crisps>everything else

I was once like you

>>11494093
Granny Smiths are the best.

I only eat prototype apples

Apples a shit!

>>11494239
Just google types of apples and use process of elimination

>>11494093
The CHAD Granny Smith v. the VIRGIN Red Delicious.

>>11494093
They are both Jannetties to Lemonade Apples.

Red Delicious are shit. All red, no delicious.

Cameo, Opal, and Koru are where it's at. Honeycrisp are alright when they're less than $2/lb, meme-tier otherwise.

>>11494093
Both are beautiful.

>>11494093
The yellow ones are better imo

Based

Because they're specifically bred for color at the expense of taste for marketing purposes. Sadly, it fucking works too, because any time some place provides a piece of fruit with lunch it's a fucking red delicious apple.

Red is too sweet and green gives me massive stomach pains and makes me feel like vomiting. Fuck apples.

>>11497507
Is there a more NPC food than a red delicious apple? Seriously, have you EVER went to the store and thought “hmm, yes I will purchase these red delicious apples for my own consumption.” Like who the fuck is doing this?

>>11494093
for me, it's the pink lady
>no homo
>no bully, plz

Best apples for an apple pie?

>>11494239
Almost definitely an Arkansas Black

>work at park that used to be apple orchard before it was donated
>loads of various old cultivars left to sit for 60 years unchecked
>hybrids and hybrids of hybrids pop up everywhere
>old lady who worked there for her entire life somehow took cuttings of all the best tasting trees and attatched them into one tree
>tree grew way in the back where only us employees knew of
>greatest apples in the world
>some jackass cut down the tree this summer to clear out a burried gas line
>the old woman has retired and no one knows what trees the original cuttings came from if the trees even exist anymore
>the best apples humanity has ever seen are somewhere in the 1600 acres of the park waiting to be rediscovered if not lost forever

Such a waste.
