Apple
Apples are the fruit of an apple tree, which can be green, yellow or red. Fresh apples mainly contain water (over 80%), as well as fiber, proteins, various organic substances and a lot of vitamins. In addition to starch, we also find tannins, etc. in the peel.
History: The apple has been present in human culture for thousands of years. In Christianity, the original sin of the human race, plucking the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge, is traditionally associated with the apple. However, nothing more is written in the Bible about the tree and the fruit that Eve plucked. The royal apple became part of the symbols of royal power. From Greek mythology comes the golden apple from the Garden of the Hesperides inscribed "The Fairest", the apple of contention between the goddesses that was supposed to judge Paris. This apple was the beginning of the events that led to the Trojan War and the later fall of Troy.
