Zoe's first grade class (goooo Mrs. Whitehead!) is going to be doing some science projects with apples this week, as well as doing some writing about taste, texture, color, etc. She was asked to bring her favorite apple to class on Monday. Huh, I thought...how is it that I don't know what is Z's favorite apple? Well, never to early to start the science...
So, we purchased two each of the following apple varieties:
Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Granny Smith, and Fuji
(she looks ready to me)
First, the Red Delicious...it's kinda hard to bite apple slices with NO front teeth!
It's important to cleanse the palate between samples.
Next, the Golden Delicious...which was described as "yummy" and "juicy"
"This is kinda fun, mom!"
(See...no front teeth!)
Third, Granny Smith...
The facial expression was rather descriptive, but Z clarified that she meant "sour"
And finally, the Fuji...
Z said that it tasted "a little like vanilla ice cream"
Our little taster enjoyed each of the samples, but, in the end, pronounced Fuji apples "the winner." :)
And thus, our tasty exploration ends, and a fresh Fuji is in the backpack and ready for Monday!
Thanks for reading xo
