    When I was a kid in Pennsylvania a truck would come around in the fall and my parents would buy a bushel of MacIntosh. Maybe it was because they were so farm fresh but I couldn't imagine a crisper, sweeter, juicier apple (and big too). I would sit on the back porch and cut slices off of one with a paring knife. Very good and vivid memory.

    Honey crisp are my favorite. A couple of my kids prefer them too but two of my other kids prefer red delicious. My husband likes Braeburn's if they're on the greener side since he likes a little tartness. I love the bright, sweet, crispness of the Honey Crisp. They have a little zing but aren't tart and very, very juicy. There is one call the "Graple" that tastes like a grape but has the crispness of an apple. It's good but I feel like I'm eating frankenfood when I have one of those. Plus they're expensive.

    I just tried ambrosia the other day and I think that's my new fave.

    I've never heard of honey crisp or pink lady. I'd love to try those.

    from the grocery store, year-round: Granny Smith and Honeycrisp

    from the orchard in-season: Macoun!
    and also...
    August: Paula Reds (crisp, sour, and juicy)
    September-Macintosh: (crisp for just a few weeks)
    October-November: Granny Smith, Empire, Northern Spy.

    Mmmm... I want some apples now.

    Golden delicious but only when they are just picked. To ripe and you may as well use it in an apple pie Hmmmm.

    Braeburn is a great red tart but sweet apple and my favorite. Gala is pretty close to it.
    Also love Granny smiths

    It's a toss up between fuji and gala's for me for a grab and go snack but I have to use granny smiths when making my homemade applesauce.

    Jazz! it's a hybrid of gala and one other, either Braeburn or Fuji, I forget which. My fav! DH prefers Honeycrisp.

    and plain ol' Red Delicious just don't do it for me anymore--spoiled I guess!
  • FUJI !!!!!

    Yesss! Fuji! Yummmmm!

    Surprised I went through the entire list of messages before someone named the grand exhaulted of all apples...the Granny Smith.
