Black Arkansas are delicious, but they stay really, really firm when you bake them in a pie. Unless you like a crunchy-ish apple pie, I would stick to eating it fresh!

I was inspired by your goal only changed it up to 1000 new tastes. I tried a buddha’s hand this weekend. Odd in shape and in flavor. I’m going to try flavoring vodka with it.

I love this project of yours. So much in fact that I added trying 500 fruits to my life list. If I get to 500 and decide to go for more, I certainly can, but at this point in my life, 500 feels manageable! Thanks for the inspiration. I’m 6 months in and at #78!

Oh goody, you tried an Arkansas Black! They’re currently my second favorite apple, after the Winesap (which you should try if you have a chance). I’m such an apple nerd.

The Black Arkansas is gorgeous! The Davisson is too perfect. I wonder what this apple aesthetic says about me.
