Our friend the Apple....
* For maximum health benefits, don’t peel your apples. Two-thirds of the fiber and a wealth of antioxidants are found in the skin. Nearly half of the vitamin C lies directly underneath the peel.
* Apples will ripen six to 10 times faster at room temperature than refrigerated. Most apples will keep two weeks in the coldest part of the refrigerator.
