Fujis are the best IMO. They are perfectly crispy and sweet. Everytime I try another variety I usually regret it.

- twic 6y agoHave you tried Braeburn? Fujis always seem like a pale imitation of a Braeburn to me. As do Pink Lady, Gala, and Jazz.
- Doxin 6y agoSo is it just me or are Jazz apples just the mealiest of apples? We get them at our office, and I've tried them multiple times figuring maybe the previous time we just got a bad batch, but every single time it's like taking a bite out of a bag of flour.
- twic 6y agoAte a Jazz this morning and it wasn't at all mealy. Office fruit is often terrible, though - you get the oldest and dodgiest leftovers that no consumer would buy for themselves.
- cranekam 6y agoBraeburns are great when in peak season — juicy, crisp, not at all pappy — but in the UK at least they’re highly desirable (edit: I mean they’re a staple, not that people really crave them) and therefore grown or imported year round, despite the fact that for 10 months of the year they’re mealy, bland spheres of disappointment.
- pony_sheared 6y agoA Kent Braeburn in season is pure joy. Your description of the remaining months, primarily imported, is spot on.
- EsotericAlgo 6y agoFuji also have one of the most edible cores from a taste perspective. Great for an end of hike treat.
