I know my favorite apple is Golden Delicious taste wise (the yellow ones)

but there are sooo many different varieties of apples out there.... and i was wondering which one is the best one to eat and why? nutritionally based answers please =P

You can add your personal preference to taste if you want though too but please let me know its just a personal preference :laugh:

    I like red delicious best...I like the texture and the taste is never bad, never good. Other varieties are too hit or miss and more expensive.

    i love granny smith, but I can't eat them raw. I have to cook or microwave them because apples make my gums, tongue and throat itchy. It just started in the last couple of years and I really MISS raw apples!

    I really only like Granny Smith's. I'll mix it up once in a VERY great while, but I love the sweet-tart style of them.
  • Lady Alice apples all the way! They are absolutely amazing!

    All other apples are inferior to Fuji Apples

    Honey crisp is my fav. But honestly, any crisp apple, if eaten with "side" of salted caramels is pretty much the best snack ever!

    I love the Pacific Rose ones but haven't been able to find them recently. Other than those either Gala or Red delicious. I only like the sweet ones!

    Pink Lady

    But any red ones are good with me - not so big on the green ones, will eat them, but if I had to choose, would be red :smile:

    Honeycrisp. I only eat apples when those are in season.

    I heard a dad at the grocery store tell his kids that Red Delicious apples taste like yuck. Made me lol.

    Pink Ladies. I can no longer fully enjoy another apple now that I have tasted that sweet perfection.

    I like the yellow in my smoothies and the golden delicious or a honey crisp as a snack with a little peanut butter.
