Red Delicious apples are horrible. Pink Ladies if you can find them, Honeycrisp if you can't.

- aetherson 9y agoI don't really get the love for Honeycrisps. I mean, they're better than Red Deliciouses, sure. But they're still too... blandly sweet, I guess, for my tastes. I like Pink Ladies, and I like Granny Smiths. That sharper, more acidic taste, I suppose.
- randlet 9y agoI am totally with you. I recently did an unscientific "apple tasting" experiment. While Honey Crisp are a good apple, they are just sweet and crisp but with no complexity or character. I deemed Granny Smith and Pink Ladies to be heads and shoulders above the rest with Honey Crisp a distant third.
- BenjiWiebe 9y agoFunny. The Honey Crisps I have had I would never have thought of as "blandly sweet". They were tangy and delicious. Reading these comments, though, does make me want to try Pink Ladies.
- twothamendment 9y agoYes, I'm hungry for an apple now, maybe a few if there were several to pick from!
