we should start shaming americans again for not being able to eat anything without tons of cheese and peanut butter on it

i just dried some apples 🍎

I eat apples and feel like it was a solid snack

Idk what y’all on

Pink Lady Apples

Dried apples all in my tea mix

Apples are trash. Garbage texture and poor vitamin and nutrient profile. As usual its another W for citrus gang 🍊 🍋 🥝

You don’t eat apples for sustenance. You eat them to improve the functionality of your body. They are a super fruit

man apples are the best f*** you

I’m allergic to apples and several other fruits (unless they are cooked)

eat them with peanut butter

Nbs what does cooking do? Break em down?

are you eating the seeds? might be taking some cyanide

Yeah, cooking them/heating them helps breaks down the components that cause the allergic reaction, so I can eat an apple pie and drink apple juice but if I eat a raw apple then it can make my throat/gums/lips itch and swell. Nothing severe or life threatening but uncomfortable and annoying. I think kiwi is the fruit that's given me the strongest reaction. I can eat some of the fruits in small doses though, so instead of eating a whole apple I could decrease the allergic symptoms by eating just a few small pieces.

Damn bruh, well thanks for putting me on. Apple pie good af

I love apple pie man. One of my favs. My fruit allergy is actually connected to my pollen allergy which started when I was 12 or 13, so up until that age I could eat any fruit with no symptoms. When my pollen allergy started, so did my fruit allergy. This is because some types of pollen have proteins that are similar or related to proteins in some fruit. It's called cross-reactivity. I just wish I could eat pears again. I used to like those.

Sustenance is more than carbs and proteins

Fruits such as apples are important sources of minerals, vitamins, fiber, and other important regulators of dietary functions.

A food doesn't have to be an entire meal for it to be useful sustenance too

I'm picturing OP trying to eat like 5 apples for dinner or something lol

Apple juice is the worst

they thought I was crazy but na this is crazy

Doctors are the best eaters
