Every apple can be traced back to the farm it was grown on.

Why do these apples need to be enjoyed IMMEDIATELY? Can't I wait until lunch? Why do I have to have one RIGHT. FUCKING. NOW.
I feel as if a ridiculously strong Austrian apple farmer is getting ready to hold me down and ram apples down my throat. posted by chuckdarwin at 4:43 AM on November 13, 2007 [1 favorite has favorites]

Oh, this is great. My oldest & dearest friend is from Trofaiach in Styria, and she always gives me crap about Arnold being my governor. I just sent her an e-mail giving her grief about this. Ha!
It's his orchard where I grew and ripened to be as large and flawless as I am.
I'm confused ... is this the apple or Arnie speaking? posted by nomis at 5:26 AM on November 13, 2007
Why does it make sense to ship an apple from Austria to the US? Besides, it's a spawn of the Golden Delicious, which is successful for it's shelf life, not it's flavor (not today, anyway - maybe in the past, but the flavor that made it and the unrelated [except by name] Red Delicious popular has long been bred out of existence through selection and long-term cold storage before bringing them to market). By which I mean, screw you, Arnold apple, I have access to locally-grown Honeycrisps and Sweet Sixteens and Haralsons and McIntosh and many, many other delicious, successful healthy apple varieties.
Haven't found anyone nearby selling a Black Limbertwig though. Still want to try one of those. posted by caution live frogs at 5:26 AM on November 13, 2007

I was hoping to find a slightly more butch apple than the Pink Lady or Honey Crisp that I could enjoy with my man friends at the dog fights. posted by The Straightener at 5:40 AM on November 13, 2007 [1 favorite has favorites]
