Favorite eating apples
I try to include an apple in my diet every day and most of the time it’s Honey Crisp. Today our store had one I’ve never heard of - Autumn Glory - that’s supposed to have a hint of cinnamon and caramel ! Be still my heart !
I can say I think it’s very good. Didn’t really notice cinnamon but I did detect caramel. Firm and crisp.

I love apples and eat all sorts, being here in Washington state we have a lot of options. I've tried the new Cosmic Crisp, I really like it but will have to wait until more trees come into production/prices go down. I think it will be a great addition to juices eventually.
I do like the Honey Crisp, they are best fresh and don't store over the year well in my opinion.
Opal is my usual choice for an eating apple right now if they are in stock. Yellow and rather pointy, sweet lightened with just a bit of tartness. Crisp and juicy and they don't turn brown fast, since I'm only allowed half an apple a day I notice that.

My favorite eating apple is Macintosh. That being said, I keep granny smiths because I like to preslice them to take with me for a snack on the go and they are very slow to turn brown.
