    If you've only eaten Red Delicious I could see how one would have that take. Gotta branch out and try different ones. Fuji, Macintosh, Pink Lady etc.

    There's an Apple for you out there.

    The new varieties are amazing. Cosmic Crisps, Snap Dragons, EverCrisp.

    They’re a mixed bag. Some are good, others less so. My family spent a summer taste testing and rating apple varieties. Fuck [Diesel] Sweeties and their horrible chemical flavor.

    I also hate the artificial corporatized naming/branding of these apple varieties. Apples should never have a fucking registered trademark.

    One thing I love about my dad is his connection to and knowledge of nature. I have many memories of him bringing me random produce, slicing pieces off of them raw, and insisting I try them. Sometimes they'd be vegetables he got from his farmer friend, or something he grew in his garden that finally reached ripeness. Other times it'd be in-season fruits of different varieties, including non-standard apples. Macoun apples are one of his favorites, and always remind me of him.

    You should try an apple stand in a Seattle farmers market. A dozen kinds of apple each more amazing than the last. A good apple stand's okay apples are several times better than the best grocery store apple
