Actually, I picture a Granny Smith. ;)
- rsynnott 5y agoApplies in Ireland; we don’t have the red delicious, but we do have the “golden delicious” (if consumer protection law had any teeth, these would be called “yellowish horrible” instead) and Gala and other Bad Apples. I think it may apply less in continental Europe.
- jhgb 5y agoBy virtue of preferring green apples, I've only had a local Red Delicious a few times in the past, but I don't recall having had any problem with the taste - except for, well, being too sweet for me. I guess I'll have to buy some the next time I see them to see what the fuss is about (and if there is any fuss to be had in the first place).
