Fruit

Apple fruit is the whole marketable pome—skin, flesh, core, and seeds together—as sold in bins and bags. Grade by size, colour, firmness, and freedom from bruises. Cultivar decides whether you have a sharp cooker, a honeyed snack apple, or a bittersharp cider type. This is the form for fresh eating, storage, and most processing streams. Handle gently; bruises brown and rot. Controlled-atmosphere storage keeps many dessert apples for months without turning mealy if cold chain holds.
