I stopped by Sam’s Club this afternoon (Sunday afternoon, that is) to pick up some apples (among other things). I hadn’t bought apples in quite a while, and I was reminded as to how many varieties are available.
Sam’s had Gala, Red Delicious, Rose, and Granny Smith apples. I'm not a particular fan of so-called Red Delicious, as I find that they’re very crisp and can be almost tart at times. I’m big on texture, and quite enjoy McIntosh apples (go figure, Sam’s Club had no McIntosh).
I’ve found quite a few pages comparing apple varieties, but I’d like your suggestions as well. Of the applies offered at Sam’s Club which would you recommend for a snack-alongside-lunch apple?
Granny Smith, all the way. It’s the perfect complement to a nice sandwich, particularly a sandwich made with Milton’s Healthy Multi-Grain Bread. (You know I had to look that up. ^_^)
Hahaha, why do I encourage you?
My favs are Fuji and Gala.
For eating: Empire, McIntosh and Fuji
For baking: Corteland
Gala.
