    Default How do you like them apples?

    I was having a heated debate with a friend over the way she preferred her apples. She likes her apples cut with one of those swanky slinky apple slicers. Whereas I demand that they be eaten as they should be; crisp and crunchy, right off the core.

    How do you think apples should be eaten?

    Yeah I prefer them eaten off the core. When you slice them, the slices start to go a bit off if you don't eat them quickly enough.

    But a heated debate about apples? Did you come to blows or something? That's pretty hardcore. Pretty hard...apple core.

    I agree that sliced apples are for ninnies.

    I was going to give you props for the "hardcore" comment, but then you had to beat us over the head with it. *sigh*

    Anyway, whole apples off the core is the obvious method, though I will not turn my nose up at proferred apple slices.

    With the mouth.

    Kidding aside, I like my apples just the way they are. I work with kids (as a teacher in a sort of after school centre, where they come to hang out in the afternoon until their parents get off from work), and so I've cut many apples and pears into boats. For some reason it annoys me that they can't just bite into the darn apple and just eat it, instead of all this "I only like them in boats" or "Peel it please!".
    Kids today are just pampered I guess.

    Also, apple crumble and apple cake/pie!

    Apples are meant to be eaten whole unless sliced up and put in desserts.

    Apples should be thrown out and replaced with meat. Damn hippies.

    You said it, Breine <33

    But I also like them off the core, so to speak, I don't slice the apple first. But then again; if you slice the apple, sprinkle some sugar and cinnamon on the slices (add butter if you want) and put them in the oven for a while <3333 it's delicious!

    ^ I'll have to try that some time.

    I like my apples off the core. It may sound weird but I like the crunch sound you get from it.

    I slice them if I'm gonna dip 'em in peanut butter or something, but otherwise eat them off the core. Cutting them takes effort.

    Sliced apples are <3

    I hate how it feels to have the skin get stuck in between your teeth sometimes.

    Usually I'll buy four and eat one or two off the core and the rest I'll cut and eat with peanut butter. And one time caramel!
