This apple is my favorite:



The Red Delicious apple. It's crunchy, juicy, and sweet. I don't like soft apples, or apples that are overly tart.

My mom and I drove out to an apple picking place again this year, and picked our own apples. I told myself before going out there that I would not pick as many Red Delicious apples as I did last year. But I wound up getting almost as many (almost a whole big bag full!) There is something about picking apples that is so fun, that I can't stop myself once I start. I jokingly told my mom that I think I'm obssessed with apples. Now I have a big bag of apples to eat. I probably will wind up making apple sauce, like I did last year, to eat up the apples so that they do not spoil.

I love Golden Delicious apples.....and they are tasty if u slice them and spread with peanut butter

Oooh, that sounds good! The place where my mom and I went had Golden Delicious, but I didn't pick any of them. Maybe next year I'll get a few, just to try them.

My mom picked a couple of Fuji Apples. I'll have to ask her how she liked them.

Yup, those are goooood.

I haven't eaten an apple in so long. We tend to buy cheap local fruit or if we splash out, imported oranges. Must remember to go for some apples next time.

I can't eat apples to often...they make my tummy hurt.

Honeycrisp!!



They were cultivated at the University of Minnesota and introduced in 1991 and are now the official state fruit of Minnesota.

I also like the pink ladies.




And Golden Delicious!

I enjoy several kinds though right now the North Carolina Honey Crisp is rocking

I am off later today to an apple festival

nooooo.....
Eat chocolate coated apples instead

To eat plain I like Red Delicious and Braeburns. They of course have to be firm and juicy and sweet. No mushy apples.

But, I make an amazing homemade apple pie with Granny Smith apples. I add sugar and cinnamon and it's just the right combination of sweet and tart.

Granny Smith

First choice is Fuji....

second choice is Ida

Pretty much all of them as long as they're very firm, crisp and cool. Sweet or tart doesn't matter so much, it all depends on my mood. I love fresh apples.
