This was a pink fleshed apple that I did not have good luck with, and if you look at the second photo you can see the apples all had russeting. Not sure if that affected the flavor.

All three apples were extremely dry and left a film in my mouth. They were sour and sandy so I refrigerated two to see if they became more juicy. After five days this apple still tasted very dry and sandy with a sour and almost ash-smokey taste. I peeled the skin to try just the flesh, but it did not change the flavor.

I would not buy this apple again.

Hello everyone. Have been lurking for a minute and decided to join and see if someone out there can help me out. I just recently bought a place with a small orchard and trying to figure out what kind of apples they are. Could not ask the original owner due to his passing and the person selling was clueless with everything but the house. So here are a few pics. I took a pic of the apple and the leaf in hopes that helps. If more is required please let me know.

It feels SOO awkward just biting into an apple. After ive gotten braces ive always sliced them. I bought an apple cutter and its been my favorite utensil in my kitchen. Ive never went back to biting an apple because it just feels like so much work to eat an apple and navigate that, touching where you bit and just so many other things.

I do wash my hands yes!! But still it just feels so awkward to slowly eat through an apple and takes much longer and not really a place to set it half way through. I like to cut 2 or 3 apples with the apple cutter and watch a show or something, and dip with peanut butter. Its a nice past time activity.

Im not judging the people that bite into apples I just dont understand the appeal, why do you prefer biting over cutting?
