    Pink Lady or Fiji, quite expensive round these parts though.

    sometimes I eat the whole apple, carpels and seeds, the whole darned thang.

    Yeah, I've always found the peeling of those to be too bitter for my tastes.

    Does anybody else love just staring at all the shiny, bright apples stacked up in the produce section? :p


    I never found them bitter..but then again I have been eating them for a while..Im sure I will get sick of them. Anyone ever eat at winesap? They are tasty....

    I like looking at apples too...they are perty :D

    btw..Im not used to seeing you in AET...you are alway in MT :)

    on the news a few months ago, they were saying that apples are brain food besides being a cancer fighter.

    That's good to know...I eat them almost everyday :)

    I come over here for some things...like the complex matter of apple preferences. :)

    I haven't tried winesap. What are they like?

    'Pink Lady' apples. I think that's what they're called. :o

    (Sorry, I see they are called pink lady).

    yes they are called "pink lady" apples.
    they too are my favorite.

    he..he..important stuff, right? :)

    I tried them a while back..someone had brought them into the office. I remember them being kind of sweet. They were really good.

    yeah they are very real and very yummy.
    im no scientist but we study some wild stuff in environmental science class.

    i'd say this..
    i am guessing they take the gene from a grape
    and put it in with some gene from an apple.
    the ones i have ate were a dull red color, not bright like a red delicious.
    and um,, maybe it is like...
    like cross breeding plants or grafting plants.

    i am going off track a bit here
    but it's totally wild how ppl have
    created a new food or a new concept
    to an old food
    the grapple thing
    reminded me of this..

    in Japan they have figured out how
    to grow square water melons.
    can anyone guess how they do that, and why they do that?

    Can you send me some? :p

    lordy..that is too much work...lol...That's funny cuz the other day after I ate a apple I was looking at the seeds. If you plant one..will you a tree grow or do you have to do all kinds of stuff to it. I know that sounds like a dumb question. :)

    I suppose it could grow but it probably wont.

    Yeah, that's what I figured too. I guess I would have to ask a professional apple grower. :D

    you're on it mr. cutback.
    they grow water melons in square boxes which in turn forms the water melon into a square rather than the traditional rounded/oval shaped water melon.
    they say the melons can be shipped easier and stored in a refrigerator better.
    weird deal, i personally don't give a hoot if my water melon is oval shaped and was shipped the same way they always been.

    HONEY CRISP!!

    Unfortunately, they're not in season. When they were, I ate about four a day. Unbelievably yummy.

    For now, I get by with Gala, followed by Pink Lady's.

    the questions here just get deeper & deeper & more personal by the day dont they...

    i like pink ladys, but if your baking it's granny smiths all the way, especially with a bit of rhubarb thrown in

    they sell them in shoprite in new jersey - kinda expensive (but what isn't) about $1 - $1.25 each ...they sell them in a 4 pack. They are really good.

    There is no question for me that the best apples are McIntosh apples. Absolutely love them!
