Apples

In general I do like apples. They're a very versatile kind of fruit, in that they can be used for all sorts of desserts. I used to have braces, so I still in my head feel like I can't take a direct bite out of an apple, but I like cutting them up anyway. I hate apple flavored candy, though, so they lose some points there.

RATING: 74%

Apples are a better food that oranges on the go, mostly because oranges are messy and take too much work. They are also a lot more filling. In fact, I think apples might just be better than oranges overall. Except that oranges prevent scurvy, which is a pretty good edge.

The grossest of the gross is that green apple flavoured apple "drink." Like, it's green and sweet and chemical-y, and it costs about as much as apple juice, but it doesn't taste anything like it. I don't know who drinks that stuff, but whoever they are, they're freaks, and not the good kind of freaks.

Do you remember at Berwick school when they came out with those horrible brown, sour apple popsicles that everyone hated?

I too haven't bitten directly into an apple since I got my braces off, and I got them off like 10 bigillion years ago! I still like apples, though I would rate pears higher. Just for their satisfyingly weird texture.

PS--Come to think of it, I haven't bitten directly into a pear either since getting my braces off. I have bitten directly into many a banana, though. That should count for something, I guess.

Well, oranges were on sale today at Kroger 10 for a dollar, so that also gives them one up on apples.

I don't remember those sour apple popsicles, but they sound pretty disgusting. Remember how much I used to like soup of the day for some reason?

I will bite into a pear without even thinking twice for some reason. Not so much an apple.
