Apples (Smeagol likes them raaaaaw!)
I haven't eaten a red delicious in ten years, I bet. I love munching on other apples such as pink lady for sweetness and crispness.

Today I tried a yellow Heritage apple. Slightly crisp, slightly soft, a little tang, but a real bang of apple flavor! I recommend them for a serving tray.

2. If you can find them, American Cameos.
Lovely apples. Thin skin, crisp, a little sweet, a little tart. Soft rose fragrance and a hint of pear back in the back of the throat. (Yeah, that wine class comes in handy... it's just the beverage I dislike.)

The only bad thing is they run about 12-16 ounces EACH. They're freakin' huge.

Pcat

3. Honey Crisp

These were the most expensive ones...in Seattle store they were $2.00 a pound, but they were the juiciest, sweetest apple I had.

I too, haven't intentionally eaten the Red Delicious. They are the blandest apple variety around. No flavor whatsoever

Edited to fix description..
