Baird Farms Gala

Just back from the produce market, where I bought a Gala for the first time in ages. I pronounce it Gal-uh, for what it's worth. Polished one of them off with my sandwich for lunch, and I recalled why I don't generally buy the Gala. It's bland. A little sweet, I guess, but really not much to it. Texture was fine, not super crisp, but not mealy (I'll generally just toss a mealy apple into the trash rather than finish eating it).

Thankfully I have some dark chocolate covered walnuts from the Berkeley Bowl (just returned from a trip to the Bay Area) to leave my mouth with a good post-lunch flavor.

No clue where this Baird Farms is. I initially thought they were local, but am not finding anything relevant from Google. Oh well.
