Fuji: The Exotic Sounding Apple that Tastes Right at Home in Virginia Although
the name may conjure up images of the Orient, Fuji apples are definitely
at home in Virginia. This deliciously sweet apple is actually a cross
between all-time favorite Red Delicious and old Virginia Rawls Jennet
apples. Its appearance is a distinctive combination of red blush, striped
with green and yellow.
The Fuji is a hard-working
apple. It's excellent for snacking and for cooking. It stores well, even
without refrigeration. For retailers, that means extended shelf life.
For consumers, it means the perfect take-along for school lunches and
picnics.
Buyers also know the
Fuji as the best sweet apple available after November 1, so the delicious
flavor and great texture will continue long past other apples for baking,
for applesauce, for salads and for snacks. |
