Wow, the people have spoken and they like super sweet apples. Like Honeycrisp, which isn't a terrible apple but boy is it sweet. I like apples that have more complicated flavors like Winesap, Gravenstein, Jonathon, Empire, and for the short period that they're good, Macintosh and descendents like Cortland. Of the widely available varities that you can get at the supermarket and out of seaon Braeburn is the most interesting.

Thank you! Yes pink ladies are great, but there are less sweet alternatives I learned about when I moved to NH. Apples, like tomatoes, have so much to offer if you track down rare varieties.
Lots of great apples here (and at least one offensive comment...). As a transplant once from New York, I love baking with Empires.
But no love for the Mutsu? It's probably the single best apple I've ever tasted in my life.
Pacific Rose poeple! crispy and flavorful every time!

The Albemarle Pippin, also known as the Newtown Pippin. Tasty, crisp, and they make excellent cider. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtown_Pippin

There is absolutely nothing wrong with putting apples in the fridge. How do you think farms keep their apples fresh? Answer: They refrigerate them.
Right. Not all fruits and vegetables can go in the fridge, but apples can:

Sierra Beauty: crisp, tart & sweet.
Arkansas Black's for a nice change of pace.

Caramel apples kick a*s!
Is it POSSIBLE to eat 'unhealthy qualities' of apples?
Apples are good for you.
I heart the BIG apple
