Thank you. I hope I remember it when the time comes that I need it.

Have your ever noticed this?: I've been noticing for the past year that a lot of apples are waxed. Often, it will state that on the bag. So I wash the apple but I wonder if it does much good because waxed apples are difficult to wash. And I don't have much confidence in the light spray-washing they get (on a conveyer belt) before waxing. I wish they wouldn't wax them; but like you said, it's usually about money. Perhaps they last longer when waxed.
