I finally found these in my store tonight, and it totally lives up to the hype! So crisp and dense, super juicy, nice and sweet. I do think the skin has a bitter note, so I’ll most likely remove the peel going forward.
Has anyone else tried them yet? What did you think?

Sounds like my kind of apple! I’ll have to watch for those, they sound good.

I totally misread this as “cosmic apple crisp” and thought it was going to be about infused dessert.

We’ve had them - they are good.
I’m spoiled this year because we went apple picking a few times, and as good as the cosmic crisp apples were, they weren’t as good as honeycrisps and crimson crisps picked fresh off the tree.

Haven't tried them yet but they have them at my store and I actually found them on Red Cosmic Moon day, which was 6 days ago. I want to try them and keep the sticker as a souvenir for that day lol. They have been getting good ratings here so far.

I tried them the week they became available in grocery stores. I think they are wonderful... as someone said all the hype was true. They're more expensive than most apples but I imagine the price will come down when larger crops become available.

I accidentally left a slice that my dog refused sitting out overnight and it didn't brown. Is that a touted feature?

Are they hard and not mealy? I hate mealy apples and like mine hard enough to make your gums bleed. To me it is all about the texture.
