Cosmic Crisp Apple Flavor
The perfect, fresh, crisp, near-magic and quite large, organic Cosmic Crisp Apple.
I had a bag of flavorful chips, a perfect bodega breakfast sandwich bagel, and even seaweed snacks. It was an elaborate selection because I hadn’t eaten all day.
It was past midnight and I had finally arrived home.
And yet… All I could eat was the perfect, fresh, crisp, near-magic and quite large, organic Cosmic Crisp Apple.
The apple was huge. I opted for the organic edition; perfection ought to be honored with full perfection, in my opinion. I had the honor of first trying a Cosmic Crisp in 2020, while working (often in the produce section!) at Trader Joe’s.
The non-GMO, “classically bred,” absolutely excellent apple was first released to the public for sale quite recently; in 2019, the first round of Cosmic Crisp Apples hit stores. This is relatively recent, by the way. Considering that apples, more generally, were introduced approximately 750,000 years ago. An apple introduced a mere five years ago is, as such, almost hilariously new.
And no, this is not science fiction. It is a beautiful, thrilled, and wholly delicious reality.
When I tried my first bite, about four years ago, I was awe-struck.
