I eat a granny smith every day. They don't deserve this ranking, and this is absolutely a hill I will...uh... lie down on. Not die on.

I pair it with some cheddar cheese.

Another good pairing with cheddar cheese is Mcintosh. When they're in season, they're great.

Lately I haven't been able to find mcintosh apples in the store (or if I did, they're mushy and gross). I suspect that's the case with a lot of these apples. The Mcintosh apples I got in Connecticut were great, but here in Texas they are trash.
