That’s my experience as well, at least at my local store I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve gotten a mealy Fuji over many years.

Also laughing because I perform the same apple analysis - this new variety looks good and admittedly the names are pretty effective marketing (honeycrisp, cosmic, etc…), but they tend to be comparatively expensive and after being let down some many times I just grab the Fuji
