Apples are an icon when it comes to health; remember the saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away? Not only are apples good for you, but they are delicious too! This fruit can be found in red, green, or yellow and each color represents a refreshing flavor that can vary from sweet to tart. Do you know why we only bob for apples at parties and not other fruit? The reason is that 25% of an apple’s volume is air which is why they float! So add apples to your party events, eat them on the go, or add them to your favorite baking recipes.
