"It is not genetically related to the Red Delicious apple."
If the golden delicious is an apple, I think this statement could use some revision. --Andy M. (talk) 18:48, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree. I added a citiation needed tag to the line. NECRAT Speak to me 02:49, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Why is it called delicious?
I always wondered this. Are they actually significantly more delicious than other varieties of apple? If you could, it would be nice if this information could be added to the article. 65.78.144.196 (talk) 07:18, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
 * It is a sweet and bland tasting apple, popular with some and not others. The 'Delicious' in the name is just marketing. --Ef80 (talk) 11:59, 6 June 2021 (UTC)

- it is called delicious because it is. i am happily munching one now at my desk! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm delicious. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.244.182.222 (talk) 11:46, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
