1/2 Bushel Apples, Red Delicious

Red Delicious apples are a classic apple variety known for their bright red skin and mildly sweet, slightly floral flavor. They have a crisp texture when young, though they can become mealy as they age. Originating in Iowa, USA, in the late 19th century, they are primarily eaten raw due to their softer flesh, which makes them less ideal for cooking or baking. They are widely recognized for their iconic shape and vibrant color.
