It is my experience that any apple will rot faster if it's been frozen. Sometimes apples are kept too close to freezing in transit and do accidentally freeze as do other fruits..even bananas, plums and peaches are frequently found in only a surface ripened condition due to this. This is the same as "on tree" freezer which renders the fruit useless.

The trick is in picking the apple...Pick apples that are bright colored and have as few blemishes as possible..Any soft spots at all should be avoided..Immediately refrigerate at a temp approx 36 degrees F for longer keeping...

If allowed test the fruit before purchase...cut in half and observe...If there is an uneven ripening or premature over rippening 'under an apparently evenly ripe exterior my advice is to pass and look further...Outdoor markets direct from the farms and never frozen are best...Take home and store at room temp in brown grocery bags for even rippening if you purchase green fruit.

An additional note is that fruits are always in better quality in season..Try buying canned off season if there is a shortage of good quality available.....Hope this helps

When kept in the same conditions, generally an apple will rot faster than a carrot. This is because an apple has more moisture and sugar than a carrot, and these substances support the growth of microorganisms that increase decomposition speed.

Apple will rot first, especially if slightly bruised. An orange is protected somewhat by the thick skin.

Do apples ripe faster in a bag or paper towel?

Apples ripen faster in a bag compared to on a paper towel because the ethylene gas released by the apples is trapped in the enclosed environment of the bag, which accelerates the ripening process. Placing apples on a paper towel can help absorb excess moisture and prevent them from bruising, but it does not speed up the ripening process.


Can cows get drunk from apples and pears?

No. Apples and pears have to be fermented for a long period of time to have enough alcoholic content to make a large bovine like a cow drunk. And even then it would take a lot of fermented apples and pears to be able to make a cow drunk. But fresh apples and pears? No, not a chance. Fresh apples and pears have very little to no alcohol in them anyway.
