The only one I really know about that I like a lot are honey crisp

My power ranking:
1. Sweet Tango
2. Pink Lady
3. Granny Smith
4. Honeycrisp
…….
999. Red Delicious

(Royal) Gala is pretty good

>>6913976
OP here,

I'm not from USA, so yeah, I won't probably be able to eat most of these you post. I've tried Galas and they're really tasty.

If you're not from USA either (like me), also post apples exclusive to your region. That might be interesting.

That's the biggest lie ever.

IDK what happened to apples but it seems like more and more varieties are becoming musy bullshit. I swear to God if apples turn to shit i'm going to loose it.

My country only has fuji (the only one I like) and gala. Bought an expensive pink lady last month and it's shit. Same for red styrofoam and green apple.

Also try a superior fruit. I ate these on a daily basis. I would choose bananas + cinnamon for last meal. easily on my top 3 tastes of this world.

fucking bitches don't know bout opal apples

pink lady and ambrosia master race

used to love stocking these in the produce I worked for because they smelled so good

>Grāpple (/ˈɡreJpəl/ GRAYP-əl)[1][2] is the registered brand name for a commercially marketed brand of Fuji or Gala apple that has been soaked in a solution of methyl anthranilate and water in an attempt to make the flesh taste like a Concord grape.
that's a shame, I was hoping they would be an actual species like cotton candy grapes

>>6913967
nigga yes, sweet tango all day. Most red delicious are indeed terrible but when I worked at a Whole Foods we sold these organic red delicious and I tried some for the hell of it. They were actually great apples

Kiku is very sweet, almost like candy.

>>6913956
I like honeycrisp :)

Pink Pearls are not the best apple available but it's definitely the most unique and sells itself. Great for apple sauces.

>>6914686
There's just something about phallic foods...
hm...

the future is here

I like Jazz apples
>Am I a pleb?

Ate a honeycrisp yesterday, it was awesome, but had a bad aftertaste once I was finished..

>>6915874
if you need to ask, then yes you are a pleb

Seriously, though. Who the fuck cares? Are you afraid to lose your 4chan cred?

>>6915889

>cortland.jpg
When I lived in Ithaca I used to go to the farmer's market and get Cortland apples. Best damn apples around.

>>6914016
I thought the Winesap and Stayman were the same thing tor like the last 15 years because I can't find winesap anywhere.

Now I don't know. Some places say they are and some say they are not.

I really liked eating Winesap apples when I was a kid but now I prefer Granny Smith to the Stayman.

>>6916205
I'm sick of pears after eating a lot when I was a kid. I never get tired of apples for some reason.

>>6916252
Yeah, Cortlands are tasty, I like them as well. They're the choice for this post because they're available in the USA (or at least I thought so)

>>6914686
>top 3 tastes of this world
What world are you from originally, alienfriend?

>>6914742
that butchered french

Honeycrisp, Gala, Snapdragon and Ruby Frost are my shit.

From Britain. The best varieties are the ones that will grow well natively. Most people will hear about how great variety x is. It may be great when grown in the right conditions abroad, but supermarkets (where most people buy their food) are very dodgy for fresh food.

For example, if you like granny smith then try Egremont Russett grown natively. The first has a one dimensional sour flavour, the latter is also sour but has this balanced out with sweetness and firm flesh. Find what you like in an apple and then find its equivalent grown natively (preferably from your own tree so you can pick it just right)

I live near a major apple growing region, so I've had a lot of varieties of apples. My favorites as of this year so far are:
Fuji
Arkansas Black
Mutsu


The Arkansas Black and Mutsu are just starting to come in. And then there'll be more varieties coming in the next month. I like super crisp apples, both sweet and tart.
As far as red and golden delicious varieties go, I used to hate them, and they still aren't my favorites, BUT, when you eat one that's been picked right off the tree, it's still crisp and juicy and sweet, and pretty wonderful. It's when they've traveled or been stored for a long time (which is what they were designed for) that they get that mealiness that's disgusting. If you can ever try a fresh picked Delicious, they're pretty good, but still not as good as other varieties.

Also,
Asian pears are better than apples any fucking day. So sweet, so crisp, so juicy....hnnnnnngggg......
