What do you know about apples?

[C.Ann]

Continuing to work on my compilation of this HUMUNGOUS collection of muffin recipes I have collected over the years and I have noticed that many of them call for "tart" apples..

Would someone be so kind as to tell me which ones (by name) are considered "tart"? I'd really appreciate it..

I am copying all of these recipes by hand into a HUGE binder.. Thank goodness I've already HAD carpal tunnel syndrome or I sure as heck would have it by the time I'm done with this venture.. LOL

Gala? Winesap? Are these "regional" apples? I can't remember ever hearing of or seeing them anywhere..

Guess I'm just not "up" on my apples.. LOL
