QOTD - Thursday (re: honeycrisp apples)
This is similar to yesterday's question....
Honeycrisp apples:
or
? Or are you indifferent
?
Re: QOTD - Thursday (re: honeycrisp apples)
I think they're overpriced and overhyped. Give me my Fuji's for a $1 less per pound any day. Literally any day, since they're available year round.
When I can't get honeycrisp, or if I don't want to spend $2.50/lb on them at the store, I get fujis.
This exactly.
We make the rockin' world go 'round.
I'm indifferent (but the sleepy kind)
I had one or two a few years ago. It didn't rock my world, but it's certainly better than a boring old Red Delicious. I don't love them enough to join the annual hunt for them.
Stand up for something you believe in.
I like em, but I had one yesterday that was so sour that I got that funny feeling in my mouth like I was sucking a lemon. It made me pretty sad, since I paid $3.49 a lb for it.
They seem much more well-balanced between sweet and tart than other varieties. They are the only apple the hubz and I agree on as well.
I love them. I don't think I've ever had a bad one (unlike the Fujis I just bought from Giant, which are somehow crisp but totally tasteless).

Same here. I didn't think they were worth all the hype.
I hate mushy, mealy apples!

Lol. All of this - exactly.
Planning Bio
I honestly don't think I've ever had one! I hate red delicious though, so if it's similar in skin, I want no part of one.
Pink Lady is the BOMB.
I also prefer fujis. honeycrisps are too tart for me. my husband loves them though.
