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

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.
