Well it seems from reading a TSV thread about the apples that many, like me, do not appreciate the sprinkles and other candy toppings on the apples. I find them hard to eat and a tasteless waste of calories.

So I want to point out that Costco online has a few selections of Mrs. Prindables apple basket configurations. Some of the deals may not be as good as the TSV, but the apples included are a combination of caramel/chocolate and caramel/chocolate/walnut apples.

There is one gift set currently on sale with four apples, caramels, and white chocolate covered pretzels for $39.99. Free shipping.

I don't know if non Costco members are able to order.

I don't know how so many people, especially childred, stand to eat those sour Granny Smith apples with a sugary coating in the tsv.  My mouth puckers just thinking about it.  Maybe people don't pay attention to the apple type.  I use them for cooking only...can't stand to eat them plain.

The red basket at Costco with the nut apples is nice. I don't think that I am buying any Mrs. Prindabales this year. My neighbor gives me an apple for Christmas, usually from the TSV.

@Kachina624 I'm with you on the Granny Smith apples. Every now and then Mrs. Prindable's will do a Pink Lady apple selection, then I buy. They are sweet and tasty!

I’m watching ITKWD and they cut into an apple and there it was; a big black thing. Rot maybe? I don’t know, but it was quickly shoved aside and they moved on. lol

I'd rather just have a plain honey crisp.

I either want chocolate candy or an apple, not both. Not sure about the freshness of the apples. What if they are shipped in a hot truck in a warm region?

We are all different with our likes and dislikes.   I love Granny Smith for eating!  However don't care for candy coatings.

I 💗 Mrs. Prindable's apples.  I've ordered them for YEARS and never received one bad apple.  I've loved them all, gifted most and saved a few for my husband and me.  We all have our own likes & dislikes and these fall into my likes column.

We love Mrs Prindable's. We gifted them last Christmas and everyone loved them.

I think Granny Smith is the perfect choice. It balances out the sweetness from the caramel, chocolate, etc.

We have never gotten a bad batch.

There's nothing like the first crunchy bite!🙂
