Fuji Apples vs Red Delicious apples

Hey guys I was wondering which apple would be better for me.
Seriously though I'm not. But there's a message here. You should really be thinking about your diet as a sum of the parts and not the parts themselves. Especially when making silly-*kitten* comparisons like the title of this thread.
Think that 1 serving of white rice is derailing you but switching it to brown rice will solve all your problems? Think again.
Anytime you make these little food comparisons you're typically talking about something that represents a very small contribution to your overall diet. In most cases when comparing like food items (apples to apples, giggity), the differences are just going to be not-worth-a-fook.
I'm not at all suggesting that people don't pay any attention to their food choices --- far from it. I'm simply saying that you should look at the entire diet as a whole. Cover your bases and stop worrying about the small stuff.
There is nothing wrong with white rice, or white bread, or white potatoes. There's also nothing wrong with brown rice, or wheat bread, or sweet potatoes.
And in a nutrient rich diet where you've got your basics down, you certainly can eat from both of the above lists.

Qft. Lol. Although pink ladies and jazz are nice, too. Pinata would be a good pie apple. It's like granny Smith, but pink.
I came here for the great apple debate and was sorely disappoint. :laugh:0 -

Fuji. Always Fuji. There is no other apple kind I tell you!0

YES!!!!!! I am so much healthier, even mentally, now that I don't worry about the small shiz that doesn't even really make a difference.
Logic FTW! Thanks SS :drinker:0 -
An apple a day keeps the fat away! Well as long as it is a Granny Smith.

Don't know about what is best for cutting vs. bulking, BUT my mouth says Fuji, Jazz, and Pacific Rose apples rule (at least once daily, usually with low fat chipolte cheese or low fat blue cheese
