    Hey Jerry T.......Macoun apples

    Been getting them the last few trips to the market. Damn they are good. Not sure if you have tried them yet and if not then put them on your list.

    Yeah we get Macouns here .. very popular apple around here most grown in NY... a little tart for my taste.. I am a sweet apple junkie

    I was just going to make an apple post but you beat me to it .. went to the store for salad stuff and while going through the apple isle I noticed a new apple ! Brayburn apples ... super crisp but not as sweet as I had hoped like snap dragons ... hoping a few days on the counter they will sweeten up

    I saw the snap dragons today. Almost got some. We have had the Braeburn before. They are good.

    No, never had them. I will grab a few Sunday. We go to that market every 3 days or so normally since it's so close to the house.

    You just ain’t had a good apple .. most apples I had ever eaten were pretty tart so I didn’t eat that many apples yearly until this year ... so many good apples available now .. I would almost call them desert apples

    Probably so. I’ve only had Granny Smith, Fuji and some nasty, bitter red one.
