Groo's Wanderings

*turns my attention inwards* mmmmm. no *turns my attention back outwards* oh god

idk if this is an usamerican thing or not but it always blows my mind as a small european country resident that yall have many names and types of apples???? what do you mean its not just red yellow or green??? why is it so complicated??? who is granny smith????

'whats your favorite apple' 'red' 'no i mean like what type' '??????' actual conversatiom i've had with a mutual from usa

This is also why more and better apple varieties are being made over time as we get better at engineering agriculture, and why a lot of apple varieties come from universities. As I was already not normal about, Honeycrisp was developed at the University of Minnesota and released in 1991. Snap Dragon was developed at Cornell University and released in 2013. Cosmic Crisp was developed at Washington State University and released in 2019. Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, and Red Delicious are much older varieties. Most people prefer the newer varieties that were cultivated with university and government level research.

Also a ton of apple juice/cider these days come from honeycrisp because they're super popular but also super fragile, meaning that supply and demand results in a huge backlog of bruised or otherwise unsellable honeycrisps.

[guy who doesnt watch shows voice] yeah ive been meaning to watch that show
