Adam's Apples

I've reviewed Sunrise Magic, but want to share a second tasting of some that I found for sale at a fruit stand in Seattle. (And not just because they are worth choosing .)  ¶  Most of the nation's Sunrise Magic crop grows in Washington, where it was bred by Washington State University. (WSU also created Cosmic Crisp.)  ¶  It's always worth trying food grown in its native turf.

Apple cultivars are, literally, identical clones. Yet they can look very different depending on ripeness, growing conditions, and so forth.  ¶  On that score, I have never before seen Ashmeads Kernels like these.  ¶  Yet there they were, in a basket in a supermarket in Seattle on Halloween.
