Hey Cherrychick, Just making it up as I go along but it seems to me that the biggest significant nutritional difference between apples would probably be sugars (Red delicious vs Crabapple)... just a wild @ss guess on my part :-)

The darker the color, the more nutritious.
Red delicious is the best coz it's skin has the most anti oxidants which is good for u
