On: Red delicious apples weren’t always horrible

IIRC, most apples aren't genetically modified as we use the term today, just 'hybridized'/crossbred or whatever the word is. I think they're also all sterile.

I've been throwing the cores out into the wild parts of the lawn for 20 years. None have germinated.

birds love apple seeds and pepper seeds, though.
