I am a red delicious apple grower from Washington State. One of the ways to tell if a red is ready to be picked is to cut into it and watch for red juice coming from the skin onto your knife. This red color will also transfer into the apple. If you see red coloring on the inside of the apple, you have a premium apple ready to enjoy. I have never sprayed dye or ever even heard of anyone spraying dye on apples. It has nothing to do with organics vs. Conventional.


My family lives in Western Loudoun county and we have red delicious trees, and they bleed into the flesh too, when they are cut.

+1. Rome apples 'bleed" naturally into the flesh.

I'm here because this fall is the very first time that I have EVER bit into apples (red ones--allegedly "Jonathan" but I have NO idea, truly, but that's a completely different story) whose red color "bled into the "white" flesh. I KNOW that my aples are GMO apples (the flesh doesn't brown as an "historical" or "original-to-God's-creation" apple ought. I learned these things amazingly in God's seemingly "random" timing either this month..or last.

"Strange fruit" is a reference, made popular by Billie Holiday, to black bodies hanging from a tree after a lynching, by the way. So, not exactly what you were going for here I think.

Red delicious have a variety called black limbertwig in their parentage. A very dark red skin. That is why some red delicious are intensely red.

Eating an apple right now that is really dark red, and was surprised because it tastes a little bitter inside, as if not totally ripe yet.. noticed red seepage from skin to flesh of apple which prompted me to Google the question, are apples dyed? If this is the case, that would be upsetting because I spend more money to purposefully buy organic, and I'm expecting to get just that. That would be so messed up of the company to lie like that.

Not sure but Christmas trees (the cheap "real" ones) are dyed green.

Sorry, I forgot to add that I learned these things seemingly through happenstance on the Dr. Mercola website. His commenters' knowledge is a wealthy goldmine! Those people amaze me!


Mercola. Ok. Can safely ignore your posts now.

This is some A+ trolling. Nicely done.

OP (of two years ago, if you're still around!) you might enjoy this book https://www.amazon.com/Apples-Uncommon-Character-Heirlooms-Little-Known/dp/1620402270 There are more kooky apples with odder attributes than you'd guess.
