Feel like you’ve returned to the Garden of Eden with Pure Fun™ Giddy Green Apple candy!
The first green apple is said to have sprouted from a pile of apples tossed out by a southeast Australian named Mrs. Smith, back in 1868. Myth has it that Granny Smith introduced American supermarket shoppers to the green apple. For a culture green does not necessarily mean unripe. Like all types of apples, green apples grow on trees. They are tart but not sour and starchy.
In the Bible, Adam and Eve are tempted by apples in the Garden of Eden, and in the Swiss story of William Tell, an archer is arrested and then promised his The Greeks were growing several varieties of apples by the late 300’s BC, and the ancient Romans also grew and loved the fruit. Researchers have even found the charred remains of apples at a Stone Age village in Switzerland.
European settlers brought apple seeds and trees with them to the New World. Records from the Massachusetts Bay Company indicate that apples were being grown in New England as early as 1630. In 1796, in Ontario, Canada, John McIntosh discovered a variety of apple which is today enjoyed by people around the world.
