  You know . . . I hate to go getting all Minnesotan on you again, but the honeycrisp apple was developed here.

  And you know . . . they say that honeycrisp apples grown in other parts of the country just aren’t the same because it was developed with Minnesota growing conditions in mind.

  I guess that just means you and the husband will have to come and visit!

  And I had thought husband was being all apple obscure! He will be very impressed by the Minnesota factor and this is a great piece of info in order for me to encourage him to get on a plane. Cool!

  Uhm, I already knew that. And besides, it was grown there in a laboratory and frankly even the university wonks who “invented it” now say they are not even sure what the original strains were, and so therefore there’s little proof that it tastes better up there, and besides, the first and best apples were grown in the northeast, etc.
