i think if you want to understand more fully the rationale behind the sentiment of "CR Sucks", you may do well to visit some of these venues. I and many others believe that the overall quality of the experience is better in Colombia, the Dominican Republic, and those who have been to Brazil and Thailand have similar opinions of those venues. Why not do a little more exploring and see what it's all about?
So according to this logic, if someone enjoys apples, it's just because they don't know any better given that -- unlike the members of "I hate apples" club -- they haven't tried kumquats, pears, or mangoes.

Personally, I've tried kumquats, mangoes and pears. And I still like apples.

Actually, i was thinking its a bit more like this...
I am just talking about apples, just apples..
The apple trees in Costa Rica bear fruit just as they do in all of the other countries. You can find some delicious succulent tasty apples in Costa Rica for sure. I've seen you mh, personally savor some of these apples at a particularly good fruit stand where they specialize in some of the best apples. But,
in my experience these quality apples are just not as plentiful in Costa Rica as they are in some other countries. So in many cases the Costa Rican apple eater makes due with eating lesser quality apples.
In other countries there seem to be more apple trees bearing better quality apples. There seem to be more apple vendors around with a large supply of quality apples and thus their product is a little better value than the Costa Rican apples. You can get a better bargain when you buy these apples.
So if you are shopping for quality apples, why not go where you can find the better availability, service and price? Well, maybe there is something uniquely desirable to you about the Costa Rican apple that you personally enjoy. Well cool. Disfrutalo!
