crunchiest
Loudest when bitten
Crunchiest is the superlative of crunchy—having the most crisp, brittle texture that makes a sound when bitten or crushed.
These are the crunchiest apples I've ever had.
Figuratively, crunchiest can mean most stereotypically associated with natural or eco-conscious lifestyles: the crunchiest granola types at the farmers market.
