I am reminded of the year I was making apple pies.  First I had Grimes and
then I had a Jonagolds.  Those pies vanished.  I would make a pie one day..
it was gone the next.  Then I ran out of Jonagolds and got some Golden
delicious.  I made a pie and it was still there 3 days later.  The chickens
finished it.  I made another.. same thing.  I decided I had lost my touch
some how. It was very discouraging and I stopped making pies.

Then I saw a different apple in the store.. I made the pie.. It vanished
again.

Best apple I've had this year was a "Golden Supreme" picked at a PYO here in
Michigan.  I went out and walked the aisles, trying fruit I though was
interesting and I normally prefer reds to yellows, but something about
Golden Supreme looked good so I tried one.  The rest of my bushel was Golden
Supremems.  

My son loved them so much that he took a bite out of each of the ones we had
left less than a week after we had picked them.  (we picked the last week of
September).  Second week of Oct we went back (with a church group) and there
wasn't any Golden Supremes left unpicked (I got Mutsu this time, but not as
good) My son agrees as he hasn't taken a bite out of the Mutsu's and its
been a couple weeks now.
