Pink Lady all the way. Braeburns are ok if you’re looking for a cheaper apple. ---

I like Courtlands and my BF likes Lodi apples. Lodi apples are all tart no sweet. Kind of like the lemon of the apple world. ---

I’ll be joining the leagues of Granny Smith lovers, too. They have this sort of sourness that red delicious, fuji, etc. can’t compare to. ---

Anything BUT Red Delicious. It doesnt help that even in this part of the country, most of the Reds come from Washington state. I may be biased since my grandfather was a New York apple farmer, but NYS apples are the best. Again, anything but Red Delicious. ---

My favorite is the [Asian Apple Pear](http://hgic.clemson.edu/factsheets/HGIC1352.htm). My second favorite is all and anything else. I simply love apples. ---
