What makes a Cosmic Crisp® apple so consistently delicious? Learn about the science behind proper storage with Dr. Carolina Torres from WSU and Dr. Ines Hanrahan from WA Tree Fruit Research Commission.
We live in Queensland Australia (North East). About two years ago, we took a trip down to Tasmania (a large island on the southern tip). Whilst there, we drove around Bruny island one day. A very small island with around 600 inhabitants. We stopped at an honesty box outside someones house which had freshly picked apples in a box. As I bit into one, the taste was amazing, I was instantly transported back to my childhood in Ireland where we would steal apples from the church orchard around September. It was right there that I realised I hadn't had a fresh apple my entire adult life, just long term storage apples. Sad huh!
