Almost all the "white" produce (corn, nectarines, peaches, etc) are
sweet or even extra-sweet and super-sweet hybrids. Hybrids going more
for sweet than flavor. Usually flavor is better for use in a
pie/cobbler. Better to have flavor and add sweet in the form of
sugar. Otherwise, I agree. Whites are great for eating raw or
topping breakfast cereal/oatmeal.

I wondered about that, too. Is this a new harvesting process or have
they been genetically modified to have no fuzz?
