Apples are a pome fruit of the apple tree Malus domestica. The main species is the focus here, though related fruits may be discussed as well.

My favorites.

Apples in Europe

I’m vacationing in Europe and I bought a few apples in a good quality grocery store and they’re all pretty mealy. They have a few varieties like gala, Fuji, topaz, jonahgold and they’re all like this.

Maybe I’m spoiled from having so many Crisp varieties available in New York, but anyone else notice this? Other fruits/vegetables are pretty good.

Baking apples

So obviously Granny Smith, Jonathan, and Russet have been staple baking apples for me. This year I ran out of Granny Smith and supplemented with gala because it was a cheap apple I had in my fridge and I was lazy. I was expecting it to be a little too sweet, but it was actually really great. I think the mix of the two really offset each other well.

What unconventional apples have you guys used to bake with?

Im new to apples

I've been getting into apples recently. There were no bananas left, so i settled on an apple to put in my lunchbox. it was good. i was never a fan before, but something changed.
I now eat an apple for breakfast, and one before bed.

i just ate my night-time apple. it was great. sometimes i giggle while eating my night-time apple because i am so happy. i dont giggle in the morning because i am too tired but eating an apple in the morning makes my thoughts feel good. night time apple is one for giggles and laughter.

yeah. apples are pretty sick.

Kanzi Apples?

Anyone tried these yet? I just tried one, and it was actually really good. Super juicy and crisp, and very flavorful.

Why has Granny Smith remained the standard Green Apple?

It seems like every year we get more and more varieties of red apples. Yet, my entire life the Granny Smith has been the only green apple widely available. Anyone know why this is the case?

Opal apples are available, got a bag today in State College PA

If you've never tried them, get some! What I love most about them is they don't brown after being cut.

Pink Ladies

I bought some Pink Ladies earlier in the week and they were so good! Sweet, crisp and a little tart with lots of flavor. I figured they had to be in season because the last few times I bought them which was months ago, they kind of disappointed me. Yeah they're in season so go getchya some Pink Ladies while they're in season!
