Day 3 - Golden Delicious


Today's apple is Golden Delicious.  It is not closely related to the Red Delicious which is good because the Red Delicious would surely be jealous and probably shake itself from the tree and fall to it's death.

I like the Golden Delicious.  It is a parent apple to many well known varieties, including the Gala, Ambrosia, Mutsu, Pink Lady and Jonagold, thanks mom or dad!  It is yellow/gold or greenish in color, is very sweet and is crisp and juicy.  Today's sample was more on the tart side than I expected. The Golden Delicious is prone to bruising so don't be too rough with it and you may just be rewarded with golden deliciousness, damn, I'm cheesy!

Tomorrow, I review the Gala.  Crunch on!
