mealiest
Most soft, crumbly
Mealiest is the superlative of mealy, describing the most dry, grainy, or powdery texture among a group.
Apples or potatoes that have gone soft and lost their crispness are mealy; the mealiest specimen is the worst offender: That was the mealiest apple I've ever had the misfortune to bite into.
