Let us introduce you to a fine lady...Organic Pink Lady Apples $1.69 lb. Everything you want in an apple...crisp, juicy, sweet with just a hint of tangy tartness. Snackers and bakers across the globe give the Pink Lady very high marks in tastings. A cross between a Golden Delicious and a Lady Williams, this variety was created in Australia in 1985 and soon found favor in the U.S. Pink Lady is a source of pleasure. ‘I’m under a spell’, ‘it’s irresistibly attractive’, ‘utterly seductive’ are just some of the ways consumers express their appreciation, far more intensely than for other apples.
