> A disproportionate number of the apples in the grocery store have MacIntosh in their ancestry Interesting! I love Macintosh apples having grown up on them from my mother who is from Vermont (She makes a mean Apple Pie with only those). Sadly, I can never seem to find them here in the Bay Area. My mother makes a large order shipped from Vermont every Fall. All that to say, I'm surprised the apples that taste pretty poor to me are closely related to Macintosh.
