Cultivar or Racehorse?: Apples

Time for the next installment in my periodic Cultivar or Racehorse? series. This round of Cultivar or Racehorse? features apples. There are so many apple cultivars, you guys. So. Many. And so many of them have really goofy names. It was hard to narrow it down to just a few choices; there will definitely be another round of Cultivar or Racehorse? Apples Edition in the future.

(Aside: I love doing these posts but formatting in Blogger is a pain in the ass, holy shit!)

Anyway, away we go!
