A lot of people call the bagged apples hand apples and eat them without any preparation.

Extensive rotten parts on the bagged apples would also be a klaxon call not to buy produce from that grocer.

Cooking apples are different varieties, anyway. The best reason to process apples at home is if you have them fresh off the tree.

For US common apples, Braeburn and McIntosh both straddle the line between cooking and hand apples.

(I think they are both terrible hand apples, but my preference for crispness overwhelms other considerations)

Braeburn pairs well with cheddar cheese. :D
