In the realm of  Honeycrisp  and its two principal rivals, EverCrisp and Cosmic Crisp , the SugarBee (R) is but a poor relation. Why, it doesn't even have the word "crisp" in its name. But it comes from the same stock and aims for the same effect. So join me for a comparison tasting with Cosmic Crisp (L), since I am fortunate to have both today.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a new apple variety with the word Crisp in its name is positioning itself for a run at Honeycrisp . Of course, that means these rival varieties are also implicitly competing against each other. So, Cosmic Crisp (L) and EverCrisp, what do you have to say for yourselves?

If you have to stick a plastic label on your fruit, why not design it to a fare-thee-well?

You knew this was coming, right ? I just ate these guys, and am feeling—sugared out. The spectacular commercial success of Honeycrisp (right) has spawned a generation of challengers. Today comes Cosmic Crisp to claim the Saccharine Crown. If you are a Honeycrisp fan, you've got to be wondering how the challenger stacks up.
