gala and Fuji red apples | Buy at a cheap price
There were times when Red Delicious had no rival within the global market
However, Gala and Fuji apples are increasingly overtaking other kinds of apples with their affordable price and new tastes
Gala apples have been successful in offering consumers the things that Red Delicious lacks—the taste
Other than being decoratively and cosmetically beautiful, Gala apples are sweet, delicious, and juicy
Gala and its many kinds are also easy to store, package, and resistant to bruises
These features have given them a great advantage in comparison to those of yellow apples, particularly Golden Delicious which is hard to store and not suitable for long-distance shipments
Fuji red apples are another streak that has been recently surpassing those of Red Delicious in the international market
Same as Gala they also have a sweeter, tangier, and crispier taste while having a beautiful and lucrative display
The advantage of the Fuji apples however lies in their longer refrigerator time, easier packaging and capability to be shipped to longer distances
In this respect, they are among few cases that can compete with Red Delicious
After having introduced the most important kinds of red apples, this article will try to meticulously analyze the price and place of the Gala and Fuji apples within today’s international market
Red Apples Types
The types of red apples are almost uncountable, being classified based on their skin, flesh, shape, color, longevity, and storage conditions
Some experts believe that there are as many as 30 kinds of red apples, and some others even give more significant numbers
These are also different kinds of terminology for the assortment of red apples, which stems from the fact that they are being produced in different regions around the world
In this section, we try to briefly describe the most prevalent kinds, excluding Gala and Fuji which will be delineated in other sections
Red delicious by far has been one the oldest commercialized red apples
Although Red Delicious had first not been as red as today’s kind, the agriculturist, by tapping into their genes, have tried to make them as red as possible
This process made the skin of Red Delicious shinier and ubiquitously read and taintless, giving them a cosmetic appearance at the expense of their taste which was sweeter at first
Today, Red Delicious apples have thicker skin and more compressed flesh
Although these criteria have made their storage, packaging, and shipment easier, their taste has become less desirable than before
Hence, the demand for these apples has been declining
MacIntosh is another kind of red apple that is considered the national apple of Canada where it was first planted and commercialized
Although MacIntosh itself is divided into different categories, the color of this string of apples is a combination of red and green
MacIntosh’s brand and name have been successful in the global market, pushing aside red delicious and in some cases Gala and Fuji apples in many countries
The taste of these apples is in-between sweetness and bitterness with moderately softer flesh
These characteristics have made them a great choice for making apple ciders
An approximate match to Macintosh is Honeycrisp red apple
As its name is indicating the taste of it is crispy, juicy, and tangy
The skin and flash of Honeycrisp are also thick and hard, making them suitable for protracted storage and far-distance shipment
Due to their acidic flavor, they are also suitable for making different kinds of juices and ciders
This line of apples has also been pushing aside those of Red Delicious within the international market
Gala Apple Price
The demand for Gala apple is surpassing the means of its production, impacting its international price significantly
Although other kinds of red apples have been finding their place alongside Red Delicious, it is Gala that overran all the others, making itself the most sold red apple in today’s international market
Ironically Gala’s taste (and even look) is close to that of Red Delicious before it had been cosmetically commercialized
This has made the Red Delicious be used more as decoration in different settings, however, Gala re-invigorated the old taste of red apples
The skin of these kinds of apples is much brighter than Red Delicious and does not have a ubiquitous solid color
They are usually either spotted by yellow dots or striped by yellow veins
However, sometimes the yellow color of some of Gala’s kind overtakes that of its redness, making them closer to those of Golden Delicious and giving them a much sweeter taste
Due to these facts, Gala apples are more vulnerable to prolonged storage, pressure, and long distances
Thus it is better to acquire them during their seasonal harvest which starts in May and ends in September
However, it also can be found throughout the year
Fuji Apple Price
Due to the increasing demand for Fuji Apple, its price is also growing in some markets where it is not yet produced or imported sufficiently
Although the Fuji apple was first cultivated in Japan by the hybrid breeding between Red Delicious and other kinds of apple, it is now being cultivated and sold in other countries, especially the USA
Thus, Fuji and its subordinate kinds are the dominant streak of apple in Japan and are finding their place in other countries
For example, there are currently the third most-produced apple in the USA and comprise 70 percent of China’s apple market
