Are Red Delicious the worst kind of apples?

[FernandoRocker]

Red delicious is a bad apple. Just the lowest common denominator that offends the fewest amount of people by being bland. They are only marginally better than Golden Delicious apples, the worst apple on the market.

 

[shnurgleton]

yea

firmly on team granny smith

 

[chefbags]

I'd say so. Once I tried Cosmic Apples. I never went back to anything else.

Granny Smith apples are gross raw but delicious baked.

 

[TheChuggernaut]

Yes. Would rather have any other apple

 

[finalflame]

Yes. Honeycrisp are the best.

 

[Inquisitive_Ghost]

Whoa. Hey. I like Red Delicious.

And Golden Delicious are great, as long as they're properly ripe. If they have any greenish colour in them at all they suck.

 

[electricblue]

Why do they even grow these anymore

 

[QuinchoOsito]

Yes. Gala apples are the people's champ.

 

[BarringGaffner]

I'm all in on organic Gala apples. Organic only as they are smaller and a bit tastier.

Yes, granny smith for the win.

 

[Boy]

They aren't bad, but not my fav. I'm a fan of Mac apples. I like granny smiths also, but they make my teeth sensitive if i have too many of them.

 

[echoshifting]

Yes I hate them

What the fuck is this bullshit

 

[Lord Vatek]

Red Delicious are bad but Golden Delicious are great.

Honeycrisp are the GOAT.

 

[Ferrio]

I believe there's a picture of one in the dictionary next to the word "Mealy".

 

[kmfdmpig]

Red Delicious is a bit like the Russian roulette version of apples. It can be amazing or absolutely terrible and there's no real way (that I'm aware of) to tell from the outside.

[Bulby]

fuck no, they are red and delicious

 

[Travo]

Yes, can't stand them. Why eat them when we have Granny Smith's?

 

[Titanpaul]

Yes. Granny Smith real close but bad for another reason (way too much Granny, not enough Smith)

Team Pink Lady or Honeycrsip here.

[Astro Cat]

They're trash apples in a world with Fuji, Gala, Honeycrisp, and Granny Smith.

edit: I forgot the amazing Pink Lady

 

[SwampBastard]

They are absolutely not the best, but that doesn't necessarily make them the worst.

 

[Deleted member 61909]

My motto to remember to never buy them: Red Delicious, are not Delicious.

 

[Reym]

Yes. They are garbage.

Signed, an apple snob.

 

[Mr.Deadshot]

Granny Smith is the real deal.
Red Delicious is the apple that gets mealy, right? That's disgusting.

 

[Keikaku]

Nope, it's the best apple.

 

[Brinbe]

honeycrisp and pink lady are real good. gala/fuji are alright too. spartans are junk

 

[Heynongman!]

Red and Gold Delicious are the worst apples for sure. Honeycrisp, Gala, Jazz, Granny, McIntosh, all better apples.

 

[Sign My Guestbook!]

Put me off apples for my whole childhood. Discovered honey crisps later on and now really enjoying apples, but damn are Red Deliciouses awful.

 

[Pirate Bae]

They are the best kind of apples.

Especially with peanut butter. Mmmm.

One of my favs. Love sour tasting apples like these and McIntosh.

 

[Nemesis121]

Granny Smith with salt and black pepper is my food crack..

 

[Stoof]

Red Delicious is easily the worst that I've eaten. Honeycrisp or Jazz any day of the week.

 

[Gwenpoolshark]

Pretty much everyone agrees that Red Delicious is a cruel joke on god.

Golden Delicious apples, the worst apple on the market.

This reliable source told me these are the worst actually.

 

[Big Tent Expat]

I used to think I hated apples when I was little because they're mushy and mealy. Then I got to try other varieties

Fuji, Gala, Honeycrisp, and Granny Smith.

and found out it was just Red "Delicious". So yeah, trash ass apple.

 

[inner-G]

No

They are delicious (source: I live in washington)

Opal and Cripps Pink are pretty good too.

 

[Bengraven]

You're all insane. I grew up in orchard country and trust me, it's an above average apple at worst.

Permaban me from this place. I can't be on a forum with such politically radical people.

 

[Shadybiz]

Yeah they're pretty awful. Honeycrisps and Pink Ladies are what I usually go with.

 

[Rokal]

They've got one of the most misleading names in all of the fruit/vegetable universe. They are trash.
