Bartlett Pears

Also known as a Williams pear, Bartletts have the most classic shape, color, and juicy flavor you crave when you hear the word pear. Unique to these pears is that their color changes while they ripen. If you want a crisp, tart taste, eat when the pears are green; for mildly sweet and tender, eat when they are yellow-green; if you are looking for melt-in-your mouth bursts of juiciness, wait until the fruit is golden.
