The economics of apples (not corporate Apple, the crunchy type)

On an unrelated topic, here's a random blurt about quite possibly, the best apples in existence, and what it could teach us.

Take from my Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/TomerGarzberg)

--------------------------

Just had a Pink Lady apple that was a quarter the size of a human skull, had a crunch that almost broke the sound barrier, was as juicy as 100% bottled juice and had a sweetness that lets you appreciate the sense of taste. According to my grocer reciept, it weighed 250grams and cost approx $1.70 each. Seriously one of the best culinary experiences ever.

It always perplexed me at the choice and variety of apples, and with the seasonal changes, the Fuji variety turned few and far between and the classic Granny Smiths became tiny. Delicious red are not very delicious at the best of times. I snobbed the Pink Lady variety due to it's sheer presence, as it seemed to scream "uneconomic apple", but if I have learnt anything during this sensational vitamin journey, it's to tell the economy to screw itself. Sometimes a great apple and a mind that dictates an opportunistic decision is more important.
