Remember, George Washington's false teeth weren't wooden, they were looted from dead slave's bodies.

[-] KurtVonnegut@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

Also, fun fact: James Madison (who was the fourth president and wrote the American Constitution) had a black son who he owned as a slave, and who was the result of him raping his own half-black sister, who he also owned as a slave.

Holy shit, this is a new fave website. The reviews are savage beyond belief.

Crimson Gold Apple

"A crabapple in disguise". 31 points, "Horse food" tier

These little shits are glorified crabapples masquerading as edible fruit and should not be tolerated outside of cider production and pretentious baking applications. Each minuscule bite of these filthy monkey cheeks explode with an intense yet somehow dry flavor combination that will make you want to spontaneously vomit. Do not be fooled by this repackaged trash, Crimson Gold is just a misleading name slapped on a swollen testicle.

holy shit i am crying in the break room right now

Cosmic Crisp: 74. "The most overhyped apple of all time"

kiryu-approaching oh these are some fucking fighting words

[-] dannoffs 19 points 9 months ago

There are better tasting apples, but there aren't any better tasting apples with anywhere near the same shelf life. As someone who eats maybe an apple or two a week this is an important consideration.

[-] zephyreks@hexbear.net 12 points 9 months ago

It's a good apple and I think they're not being entirely fair, but the skin is worse than Honeycrisp.

The Red Delicious is "A baseball glove filled with coffee grounds". That is correct.

[-] sloth@hexbear.net 15 points 9 months ago

Thank you both, this is amazing.

[-] wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago

I gotta say they are spot on with the so-called "Red Delicious" apple. Every one of those apples looks and tastes like meal covered in wax.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 26 points 9 months ago

"Red Delicious" were a triumph of labeling and marketing, much like LLMs being called "AIs" and shoving people out of work while doing shittier jobs.

Holy shit this is great

The Autumn Glory " Well, science has finally created an apple that tastes like the spit in your mouth right before you vomit. This fever dream of a deranged Washingtonian scientist is shielded by a clever name and shifty marketing team who carelessly toss around manufactured flavor notes such as “caramel”, “warm cider”, and “subtle cinnamon.” But, make no mistake, this pee-stained lump-fruit tastes less like cider and cinnamon and more like a urine-soaked gas station bathroom floor that someone accidentally spilled cinnamon on. Which makes this apple less Autumn Glory more Autumn Glory Hole.

That being said, this nasty piss floor of an apple does have the benefit of tasting unique. And while it certainly won’t be for everyone, there are an adventurous few who may actually enjoy a walk on the wild side. "

I kinda pity the person who had real life experiences to even think about those particular metaphors.

[-] Futterbinger@hexbear.net 26 points 9 months ago

Uh yeah, of course they loved that apple. Dude said it himself, it's useful for.making cider. What did he think they were eating them? Those dudes were drunk as hell.

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 25 points 9 months ago

However, Juicy Fruit may be a more appropriate label than Ludacrisp since while this apple is only moderately crispy, it is, in fact, ludicrously juicy. As juicy as a ho’s ass – as Luda might say.

Okay I love it.

[-] alcoholicorn@hexbear.net 19 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

What's all this apple ranking? We already have the perfect apple, Granny Smith.

Cheap, lasts awhile, good tasting, crunchy af, not unsettlingly sweet, and great for baking.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
