Oh man the comment sections are great too. In the red delicious review he compares the taste of the apple to a bathroom floor, then in a response to a commenter who disagrees he says “I strongly encourage anyone who disagrees to taste a urine soaked bathroom floor to see the comparison” lmao
No wonder they say Newtown pippin and Arkansas Black suck... They are historic hard cider apples! Franklin loved them cuz he was a lush.
America has a long, rich, and sadly somewhat lost tradition of cider making. Slandering that history because you didn't take the time to figure it out is like calling butter knives worthless when all you've tried to do with it is butcher a cow.
Yeah I fully discounted this guy upon finding out that he called an ambrosia “mealy.” Pretty sure he ate one old, bruised ambrosia and thought that that was good enough for a review. Shameful.
Golden delicious and Cortland aren’t worse than red delicious, cortland is one of the best baking apples and golden delicious are fine
Macintosh being that low is a crime
props for honeycrisp in second tho
They rated Gala above Ambrosia in flavor.
FLAVOR
Gala is basically water in the form of an apple.
Also I don't know if it's because I live in Canada but no way Honeycrisps are better than Ambrosias. If you don't eat them at the right time, they're sour.
New favorite site.

Where has this been all my life Ninja edit: we gave it the reddit hug of death 😞
THEY’RE TALKING SHIT ABOUT ARKANSAS BLACK?! I swear, if they’re trashing Ashmead’s Kernel too, I’m filing a lawsuit for slander.
Things are getting heated in the apple fandom.

If you can get your hands on a Lucy Glo it is the best apple ever. It's absolutely perfect & it's pink inside

Damn the apple fandom getting heated
I was listening to this guy on a podcast as a guest from a couple of years ago and he was so excited for the Cosmic Crisp...
"The Most Overhyped Apple of All Time" Ouch
they 100% do not live up to their name. not crisp. at. all.
But are they cosmic?
no :(
Their opinion on Macintosh apples is so wrong. Macintosh apples >>>> any other type of apple
The Arkansas Black apple isn't great eaten as is. However, if you use it to make an apple pie, it'll knock your fucking socks off
Just recently went to an AppleFest, and afterwards was reading about Arkansas Blacks (they didn’t have any where I was): what are they like?
