FAQs about Opal apples
Studies have shown that you get 50% more nutrition from eating apples with the skin than just eating the flesh. The Opal apple skin has triterpenoids and other anti-oxidants that have proven to reduce the risk of several types of cancer. Most experts agree that washing apples before eating can help remove any natural or chemical contaminants the apple skin may come in contact with during cultivation or packaging.
Apples naturally create a thin, milky-white coating of wax as a natural protective layer against moisture loss and invasive insects. A quick wash or polishing with a clean rag will remove this coating and result in a shiny, beautifully golden Opal apple. Other apple farmers add another wax coating after picking to help protect against damage during shipping. The secondary coats are made from naturally occurring components in plants.
Certified organic apples are grown using responsible farming techniques and the substitution of bio-dynamic methods for chemicals. FreshFruits, LLC has over 500 acres devoted to organic fruit production. What's more, Opal apples are the first apple variety in North America to be verified by the Non-GMO Project. The Non-GMO Project is the only independent verification process certifying a crop's non-GMO content, ensuring the Opal apple remains as natural as the day it first grew.
