A good Braeburn is really fun to eat, with a lemony tartness and very crisp texture; but when they go south they still feel hard from the outside and thoroughly disappoint with their very mealy texture. Maybe we should stop trying to save them for out-of-season and eat them all at their peak!Alice Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06322459333477173574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647355176632077968.post-73569843080306231702016-07-04T19:01:09.128-04:002016-07-04T19:01:09.128-04:00@Steve: Sounds like you hit the sweet spot!

They have a nice sweet taste with a slight zing. The best ones of the bag had a nice berry flavor to them. Overall the texture was more on the soft side although some were moderately crunchy. Overall not a bad apple to munch on in early Spring!Mattnoreply@blogger.com
