    Also apples used to be small, tart, and acidic.

    You wouldn’t eat them as a dessert but as a basis for brewing alcohol.

    It’s wild how much fruits changed in recent times.

    So much so that most zoo are stoppimg giving them to animals and switched to more leafy greens. They have gotten so sugary that they promoted tooth decay and obesity.

      Than you, I was going to say modern apples have a taste and texture nothing like apples when this name was created.
