I knew our paths would cross again because I like this lady and she didn't protest because she is an apple. Today I have the Organic Pink Lady. The Pink Lady was the 1st apple review I did. It is a great apple. This is my 1st time eating the organic version. It is quite good, crisp, tart, a little less sweet than most of the Pink Lady's I have tried and small in size.
Organic apples are often smaller than the non-organic version although the Organic Honeycrisp I had yesterday was big. The big question, do organic apples taste and/or look better? There is not a lot of consensus on this. Many studies using casual and expert tasters have shown that the answer is based more on emotion and pre-conceived perception than the actual taste and appearance. Organic is however, better for the environment, our health and the health of the farmers. At some point, I will do side-by-side comparisons of organic vs non-organic using friends and family members.
Finally, because of my love of apples. I wrote a song called Apples: A Headbanger's Journey. I tried to uploaded a portion of the raw demo here but it would not upload so I am posting it on facebook.
Tomorrow, I review the Organic Gala. Crunch and rock on !!!
