Its crazy because fruit and veg are so heterogeneous. If you look at apples there are dozens of different varieties, different sizes and different orchards but all one set of nutritional information. I'm pretty sure many modern varieties have more in common with candy than the small, sour apples of 50 years ago.
- grawprog 6y agoTo be fair, I would imagine, each apple on the tree has a slightly different nutritional make up then every other apple on the tree. Plants don't spread nutrients evenly throughout themselves. They push more nutrients to areas with more light or the areas that grow better. I've always assumed nutritional guides on fruits are more like averages or something. There's no way each individual piece of fruit is exactly the same. Plants just don't grow that way.
