First time trying Bravo apples. Better than gala or pink ladies I think. Might be my new favourite.
Growing up in Canada (and working in produce at a grocery store) we would get galas from NZ for half the year.
I’ve had NZ Galas here and the quality is crap compared to back home.
We get shafted with fresh produce here so badly. The good shit gets exported.
So annoying. And sometimes we pay more locally than the exported stuff costs overseas.
I have worked in food production for about 10 years.
When it comes to produce, the best stuff gets shipped to China for a fucking premium.
Then other places.
We get fifth best a lot of the time.
Apples especially. I had some top grade apples, Galas, that were going to Japan.
It’s a different fruit.
Better than pink lady? Big claims, I’ll have to try these.
Pink ladies are overrated.
Give me jazz or kanzi anyday

Been getting the pre-pack of mini Bravos for a few weeks. Very nice thinly sliced with crunchy peanut butter. I’ve never really liked red apples but these are sweet and noy dry or floury at all.
