Apples in Appealing Ways [1951]

Many families eat apples liberally, for apples regularly take top or second rank among the country’s most widely used fruits. Eaten in generous quantities, especially raw, apples can provide some vitamin C. The food value, however, varies considerably, depending on such factors as variety, storage conditions—temperature and length of keeping—and finally the way the fruit is kept and served at home. A small or medium-size apple makes a very pleasant low-calorie dessert in many homes.
