I live in the PNW, we have plenty fresh apples. I went fruit picking a lot as kid in Australia too, had apples then. Fresh apple off a tree is just not as nice as fresh tropical fruit of any kind.
Homie, you live in a state with transplanted apples grown on giant factory farms. Of course they suck. Upstate NY fucking invented hella varieties of apples. They’re named after the towns there. You ever hear of a Portland or Spokane apple? Hell no.
Fucking Johnny Appleseed was hucking seeds all over the Northeast just to invent new apples. Do you know what the colonists drank? Cider and applejack. Not much wine or beer.
Do you know why a pineapple is named like an apple? Because an “apple” was just the word for any fruit. Apples are the most important fruit in the English language.

Apples in the PNW are garbage compared to the North East. You are not eating good apples if they taste bad. It’s just that simple.
There are plenty of people who think tropical fruits are bad because they never have fresh ones.
Not bad so much, not always, just palpably less interesting a flavor.

Plus, you didn’t even mention the best tropical fruit: soursop. It’s like you don’t even know what fruit is.
