That's Macouns, pronounced ma-cow-ans or ma-gow-ans.

They're crispy eating apples.  The skins are a mixture of red and green
and they have measly little specks all over them.  They're grown up
here in northeastern Mass, at least.  I bought a peck this week for
$3.25.  They're only around from about 89/15 to 10/15.
