    I suggest you take a class on how to remove stickers from apples. After a few years, you'll have no problems.

    Brand management.

    Even with apples you go for the popular brand Even though it looks exactly like the one beside it.

    You should take the 'removing stickers from apples' class...it's just down from the orange eating class.

    The stickers are put on them when they are planted, so the apple pickers know which box to put them in.

    Why don't they make edible stickers (maybe apple flavour)? That would eliminate all your problems

    Pink ladies are my apple of choice.

    I have NO interest in oranges, they are messy and make your hands sticky.

    I wash my fruit, but I have to remember to take the sticker off before washing otherwise a small part remains unwashed and possibly tainted by glue. :mad:
