    I fucking love granny smith. Best apple ever. Juicy, slightly sour, a touch tart, perfectly refreshing on a hot summer day.

    I’ve always found pink lady to be weird. It’s just so flavourless, the flesh consistency is like wet, gravelly sand, and it gets mushy so fast…

      How would a pomaceous connoisseur such as yourself explain the difference between sour and tart to an uncouth swine such as myself?

        Tartness is just on the tip of the tongue, sourness is everywhere in the mouth.

        Tart = good palate cleanser, gets you ready for the next thing

        Sour = everything you eat after tastes sour, too

      I like granny smiths but you and I must be getting different pink ladies. For me they’re crisp and bright, sweet and just a touch tart.
