For just plain eating - Honeycrisp>Fuji>Braeburn (although the difference between them for me is so small that I consider them almost equal).

There's McIntosh and then there's everything else. Bunch of slack-jawed faggots eating second rate apples in here. McIntosh is crispy with just the right amont of tartness. Give yer balls a tug. |

I've had apples ripened off the tree. The stuff in stores is just green fruit. Honeycrisp is just sour and boring, all of them are most of the time. A tree-ripened Red Delicious beats a store Honeycrisp.

Cox Orange Pippen is the best apple. Ashmed's Kernel is good too. Apples are easy to grow. Get yourself some imidan and some phosphoric acid. Spray when the apples are the size of a small marble. Spray two weeks later and your done. Best apple I've ever ate was a Tompkin's county King but the trees get fireblight very easy. If you guys are just into supermarket apples look around and visit a local orchard and try some REAL apples!

Macintosh are fantastic off the tree. They're not crisp but not mushy either.
I like Fuji, pink lady, jazz, sweet tango for other store bought. If I found a genie lamp and got 3 wishes one would be to Thanos snap every red delicious tree from existence. |

The two best apples I ever ate were picked off a scraggly small tree beside an old strippen road on the side of the Buck Ridge in western Greenbrier County, WV on a fairly hot early October day.
We parked the truck, got out, loaded up the shot guns and I noticed that raggedy old tree had some apples hanging on it. I picked a couple I could reach, put them in a pocket and started up the side of the ridge. Eighteen years old, fairly good shape, I didn't mess around I just headed as straight up the side as I could to get to the top and find a good spot to sit down and wait on the squirrels to start moving when it got closer to evening/dark. By the time I got to the top I was sweating my ass off and thirsty as hell. I found an old fallen tree, sat down on it and pulled one of those apples out of my pocket and ate it, DAMN!! it was good and juicy and seemed to be cool, too. Tasted so good I pulled the second on out and ate it, too. To this day, I remember those two apples as tasting the best of any I ever ate. Grandma had several apple trees on the hill side above the creek behind her house and we ate those all the time as we played/worked around the house/garden/hill side. But I really don't remember those like I do the only two I ever got off that little tree on the side of the Buck Ridge. |

If every apple I've tried, I would put Honeycrisp at #1. I also like Granny Smith and Fujis. I despise Red Delicious.....way too soft and grainy.
I have not tried Cosmic Crisp yet. |

I love apples. Apples are the primary fruit I eat. I love big apples, the kind that with a little peanut butter are basically meal sized.
I want to try one of these bad boys, the Twenty Ounce apple, an heirloom from the 1850s.  Attached File Attached File |

Honeycrisp is absolutely the king of raw apples. Second would be the pink lady.
The honeycrisp is a genetically infused super Apple. Many EU Farmers were offered tax breaks to switch their orchards to the honey. |
