Bite into a red apple or a green one, a red one streaked with yellow, a yellow one with a rosy blush, a round or oblong one, baseball size or softball size, and before the flavor, before even the tang of acidity, there is the crunch.

A) Color and appearance
B) Size and shape
C) Flavor and tang of acidity
