In honor of National Apple Day, here's a chart showing how Americans are all about the Honeycrisp.

The big picture: The sweet, tart varietal has reshaped the apple market.

By the numbers: Since 2011, production of Honeycrisp apples has increased roughly fivefold nationally, per USApple data.

Honeycrisps are the highest-priced variety for grower and consumer: They average $2.16 per pound, while Galas and Red Delicious retail for under $1.40, per the USDA.
