Sure, that is technically correct, which as they say is the best kind of correct.
But as a practical matter, getting enough calories from granny smith apples to get fat is not feasible. On the other hand, you might have a shot if you developed a hankering for honeycrisps. More sugar, less fiber, way less protein.

Color has little bearing on nutrition, but I assume you mean "granny smiths" here which renders your comment understandable.
- positr0n 2y agoAt least in the USA Granny Smith and green apple are synonymous. I don't think I've ever seen another type of green apple at a normal grocery store.

Sure, that's exactly what Big Apple wants you to believe. > On the other hand, you might have a shot if you developed a hankering for honeycrisps. More sugar, less fiber, way less protein. This seems equally ridiculous to me—who wants to eat more than two honeycrisps in a sitting? And that's seriously pushing it, especially compared to basically any other sugary food (including, say, juice and rice). At least use "apple pie" to make this believable.
