They're actually pretty good. The first time I had it I was pretty underwhelmed, but that's because the hype was kind of ridiculous for a while and I didn't really understand what the Cosmic Crisp was actually supposed to be. It's a replacement for Red Delicious: super consistent, doesn't blemish easily, keeps well all year. The difference of course is that it is actually delicious. The flavor isn't anything special, very much a traditional apple taste. But it's always super crisp, always has a bit of tang, and always sweet. It's just good.

Didn't know there's so many Honeycrisp hybrids.
Bet the suits regret not trademarking Honeycrisp.
In fact, there's a naming contest for a new hybrid:

For me it is the McIntosh. I like the softer texture. But it's not available as often because of the softer texture making it easier to damage and reducing shelf life. All other apples upset my stomach a little bit unless cooked.
I eat 2-3 apples a day, and I love honeycrisps. But I think I prefer the cosmic crisp, it has better flavor. In any case, the texture is just right for both of them.
honeycrisp makes the handsdown best apple cider, but for eating apples, I like Gala, Fuji, the best, maybe jonagold ranked next. Pazazz are the new honeycrisp. I expect we'll see more of them in the coming years.
I am an oldgay who has bad front teeth so I can no longer eat apples like a normal person. I have to use a paring knife to cut pieces off. Don't weep for me, for soon it will happen to you.
Yep. This is why I can't consider Honeycrisp a top-tier apple even if the good ones are great. Just way too inconsistent, and they're absolutely awful when they're bad.
while this could be the case with any apple and singling out honeycrisp may be unfair, I will say I've never EVER had a bad granny smith
Fuji's are pretty inconsistent too
Way too big.
okay twink.
for me, it's sour jerry
sour apples are best apples
Not big enough for me. I can handle a huge apple
Apples shouldn't be that big, it's stupid Amerifat thinking.
Real men like a big apple. Only soys like you eat the tiny apples
Apples aren't meant to be a meal, fatass.
I snack on the biggest apples all day long
Just how much of a manlet are you that a big apple counts as a meal? I know europeans are short and malnourished, but I didn't know it was that bad
Apples shouldn't be the size of a baby's head, fatass. How much sugar do you need?
i will never understand applehomosexuals
pears are much better
golly, you're so unique and interesting
applegay BTFO
>unfortunately for you, I've already depicted myself as the wojak
Good one.
nothing like a bit of self deprecating humor. all jest aside, I enjoy all froots.
Does that mean applegays are NPCs?
>that one guy who ate peaches instead if apples in school unlike the rest
Pears would be perfect if they weren't gritty.
Shh you'll summon the JellyBeanAnon!
w-who is that
No they aren't. Awful texture for a fruit.
Royal Gala all the way.
If they're firm they're shit, but if they're soft pears go good too.
For me it's Kronprinz Rudolf.
Why do any of you guys post on a cooking board? You clearly don't know anything about apples at all? Why waste everyone's time here? I don't get it.
I'm actually a professional
are cosmic crisps goyslop or will you guys permit me to enjoy them?
sorry bro, permission denied
They're pretty darn good
Maybe as good as Fuji, which is the best
They're way too sweet and way too big, I only go for granny smith apples.

obligatory braeburn post. apples were solved 70 years ago. to say otherwise is to admit that you've never eaten a braeburn.
Braeburn used to be my favorite 10+ years ago. But now they hardly sell them anywhere anymore. And the quality was not reliable.
The humble Elstar will always trump all

Boskoop, frick off with your DRM apples
I just rotated one of these in my head guys
It was photorealistic
did you suppose you would be hungry?
I rotated your mum in my bed last night
It was sexual
Honeycrisp is good.
But my favorites are Envy (wonderfully sweet complex flavor) and Pazazz (ungodly juicy and crisp)

Gonna be Big McIntosh for me partner. Eeyup
came here looking for obscure references, I am pleased
As a certified Washington homie, Fuji is king.
Glad to see red delicious cucks got bullied off the board for good
pears > apples
McIntosh for me thx.
is there any person who loves golden delicious aka the worst fricking apple on planet Earth?
they are good for pies
Objectively the best fruit
Pink Lady's are nice
You sir are my Black and have excellent taste
man these are really hit or miss
sometimes a whole gaggle of them are top tier delicious and other times they taste like tonic water

My favorite apple is from the heirloom tree in my yard, it’s some hybrid I don’t know. Light green and a nice crunch every bite.
