Apple 2: Braeburn

Today I'm tasting the ever-beautiful Braeburn! May I start out by commenting that the Braeburn is ginormous. This is like two snacks for the price of one! Or since it's per pound, for the price of two. Wah wah.


Taste: This apple is definitely on the tart side of life. I like it. Nowhere near the tartness of a Granny Smith, but it still leaves a nice aftertaste in your mouth...like you might have popped a Jolly Rancher in your Zima.

Texture: A little bit mealy. Not gross-mealy, more like it's got a little character.

Price: $1.48/lb. (same as Cameo)

Attractiveness: Hunka hunka burnin' UH. Reminds me of making out with Ryan Gosling in a rowboat surrounded by swans.

Rating: I'm gonna go big here, just like the 'Burn itself - I'm going 8.5. Still leaving a little wiggle room for someone else to surprise me, but this one's a party in my mouth.
