Where we shop (in western Europe) there are these shiny huge apples, often each of them has a separate sticker. All ultra sweet because, well, people are often stupid and our instincts are too strong for some situations that we didn't yet evolve to handle better. Sugar addiction from early age is one of them. Human liking of sugar developed during times where sweet fruits were rare and no ultra cheap refined sugar or HFCS was discovered. Companies deliver what people buy more. Then at the side there are big bags (~3kg) of these not so appealing small apples with various flaws. These are the ones we buy, either bio or not, and they are much less sweet. They last less, presumably less chemistry within to keep rot away for longer, which is a good (even if annoying) sign.
