An Apple A Day

Growing up I don't remember much fruit around the house.  If there was any maybe it was oranges or tangerines.  Why didn't mother buy fruit especially apples and bananas?  These day I usually eat an apple a day.  I would eat a banana every day but banana  don't stay good very long where as apples will stay good a couple of months if kept in the fridge.  There are  many kinds of apples to chose from but I mainly stick to Galas because they are cheap and plentiful.  A three pound bag of Galas usually cost around $3.  Last week I bought two three pound bags of small Red Delicious apples for $2.50 a bag, a bargain for sure.  I really don't know much about apples but I do know day in and day out Galas are the best choice for me. I stay away for Pink Ladies, Fiji, Empire, Cosmic Crisp and all the many other kinds of apples.  I'm sure they are very good but I just don't want to pay their asking price.       An apple a day keeps the doctor away.  I don't know if there is any truth in that.   I eat apples because I like them, they stay good a long time and Galas are inexpensive.
