Mmmmmm, Braeburns! My favorite apple (and I was raised on an orchard, so I should know.) We salute thee, NZ, for creating the Braeburn!<P>As for why: Apples are the perfect food. Portable, nutritious, delicious, and long-lasting without special storage. Any wayfarer in the wilderness should carry some apples. And they're great if you want to bop an obnoxious Breelander on the bean.<P>They are so perfect, that they became the subject of story and song, imbued with magic powers and various symbolisms. <P>I suppose they could have tossed Pippin a kiwi, but it wouldn't be the same.<p>[ June 07, 2002: Message edited by: Birdland ]
