Fun historical fact: Those apples were not for eating, they were for making hard cider.

When I lived in the city, we caught people trespassing all the time stealing our fruit off our trees.
They would walk up our private driveway, and walk on our path near our front door, then load BAGS full and leave. I called them out as thief a few times, but those Mother F@$@ people just give a smug look back. These people were Pure evil. So happy to move to the country.
The seeds Johnny Appleseed used were sour and tasted like shit. They were used for making hard cider. No kids would eat them.
Well, yeah; trees planted from random apple seeds are most likely to bear crabapples. Nobody was going to be eating them.
