    BJ, If you have to buy the apples, they dont grow around hsere to get from a farm, from a dealer or the store, what do you do about the wax, on them? or whatever they put on produce to keep it fresh longer. I'm pretty sure apples we get here in produce dept are waxed.

    You Americans are so gullible. No, you won’t accept communism outright, but we’ll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you’ll finally wake up and find you already have communism. We won’t have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands.’--Nikita Khrushchev

    It's a fruit and vegetable spray. You'll find it in the fresh vegetable section of the grocery store. Ask them they'll know. It cleans fruits and vegetables and is all natural.
