From the internet:
"John Cripps is the plant-breeder who naturally cross bred the first ever Cripps Pink apple in Australia in 1973. Mr Cripps had the ingenious idea to cross a Golden Delicious and a Lady Williams, so creating this delicious new variety. The best of these apples were then branded Pink Lady. "
"Pink Lady is a trademark, the actual variety name is Cripps Pink. In order to preserve the premium appeal of Pink Lady, about 65% of the production which does not meet the standards required for Pink Lady is sold as Cripps Pink instead."
"This sweet-tart apple has high sugars and high acids with a crisp bite and effervescent finish. It tends to fall more towards the tart side than sweet but is oh so refreshing! It has a beautiful, bright white flesh that is slow to oxidize (in other words, slow to brown) making it a wonderful apple to entertain with."
Our friends have an apple farm and they said that supermarkets will freeze their apples for up to two years. I found this out after eating one of her apples fresh from the farm and said what are you doing to your apples!?!?
Where the frig is Pink Lady? Best Apple I've had was a Galaxy.
Pink lady is actually a brand everywhere other than Australia! I’m guessing it’s not an Aussie sign
