I went to the supermarket the other day and saw a big bin in the "seasonal produce" section prominently labeled "McIntosh Apples". It was full of nice, unusually large mac-like apples. Clearly this season's fruit. "Gee", I thought, "I didn't realize the macs were in, yet." Then I looked more closely. Every apple bore a little sticker stating "Paula Red".If you feel like bothering, you could ask to talk to the produce manager, who might either a) not have a clue and have thought they were macs or b) have thought none of the customers would know what Paula Red was and that they would sell better labeled as McIntosh.
I bought a few. They were very good, and did taste a lot like macs.
