RE: 【りんご旬】「サンふじ」と「ジョナゴールド」食べ比べてみました

in #japanese6 years ago (edited)

Oh my gosh, ''ふじ from Aomori'' is amazing, it's the king of APPLE for me. So big and amazingly sweet and delicious (and expensive! haha!). My favourite apple in Europe is called Pink Lady (to eat), I also like Granny Smith (to make French Apple Pie). I enjoy reading your food series : ))

Sort:  

"Fuji" is the name of the mountain representing Japan, so I felt that the taste is pursuing perfection.
I bought this apple for 98 yen, but I heard that it is sold for 1600 yen in super market for Shanghai or Hong Kong's wealthy people.( ゚Д゚)・・・

”Pink Lady” is so pretty name!Looking at the photo it looks sweet with a very beautiful color.♥
I have never eaten apple of European variety.

In the UK, there are lots of apple trees,I have heard that they are not necessary to buy at a store.
This is probably a lie, is not it? !(゚∀゚)(゚∀゚)!

People buy apples in a supermarket in the uk too! : D Pink lady is like 3 euros for 6 apples, same as Granny Smith. I remember paying like 500 yen just for one fuji apple in Japan, and feeling shocked how expensive one apple can be! but it was worth it, the fuji was so delicious. p.s. just realised my profile photo is apple, it's my fav Granny Smith!! : )

Thank you for correcting the lie...(;∀;)
!!Your profile picture is a yellow green apple!
"Granny Smith" I learned one new name. _ ((φ(・ω・` )memo memo

Although you might know
Japan has a culture that uses fruits for gifts,
(That world is like chocolate, truffles, caviar, quality wines in Europe.)
It call 「水菓子」(water sweets).There is "high sugarinesism" there.
This is why Japanese fruits are sweet and expensive.

Ariana Grande of KAWAII freak was surprised
"Why Japanese strawberry is sweet like candy?"

水菓子... what a lovely term. Another amazing gift culture of Japan. Oh just wanted to share an another anecdote about 'apple', if you ask Japanese kids, English kids, (German kids too i guess), to draw an apple, they'll draw a red apple, but if you ask French kids, they draw a green apple (just like my fav Granny Smith).
