Red Delicious. Oh, the tragedy. This apple looks like a movie star but tastes like flour. It turns brown in seconds and gets mealy. A salad crime.
McIntosh. Too soft. It disintegrates into mush. You’re making a salad, not applesauce. Step away from the McIntosh.
Golden Delicious. Bland and boring. It’s the beige sofa of apples. It doesn’t offend, but it doesn’t delight. Your salad deserves drama.
