Facts
 An apple is in the pome family – a fruit whose seeds are embedded in the core of the fruit. Another surprising member of this family is the rose.
When an apple is sliced in half, the apple core looks like a star.
It takes about 36 apples to create one gallon of apple cider.
Two pounds of apples make one 9-inch pie.
The world’s largest apple peel was created by Kathy Wafler Madison on October 16, 1976, in Rochester, NY. It was 172 feet, 4 inches long. (She was 16 years old at the time and grew up to be a sales manager for a apple tree nursery.)
Apple trees take four to five years to produce their first fruit.
