The Great Apple Challenge of '08 - Day 4
Today's apple is, the Braeburn. It is a rather small apple when compared to the Honeycrisp or even the Fuji. It's flesh is a very pale color, almost white and doesn't seem to turn too brown, unlike the Jazz. It has a decent flavor. Falling in that category between sweet and tart, however neither flavor stands out as being prominent, they're both subtle flavors. This isn't a crisp apple, it's actually rather soft feeling. There is no satisfying "crunch" when you bite into it, Also, it isn't overly juicy. All in all, it's okay, but that's about it. Nothing spectacular. I mean, if it were all I had, I would eat it, but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so.In completely unrelated food news, today I received the Chicago style deep dish pizza I ordered from Lou Malnati's Tastes of Chicago. I've been saying to Shawn how we should just go to Chicago for one night and have some pizza. Sure it would be totally expensive and excessive, but it would be a lot of fun. In lieu of dropping a few hundred dollars on some plane tickets, I decided to give this website a try. So tomorrow we'll be indulging in Chicago style deep dish pizza, straight from the Windy City. Yum!

I've wanted to do this before! My boyfriend is from Chicago and my best friend lives there (or at least until the end of May) so I have even more of an excuse.
Too bad it's not one of those situations where you can pool money together to get a good deal (like piling in the car for the drive in). :P :)
