Selecting, storing & prepping apple
- Selecting
- Look for firm, unblemished skin — a fresh apple should feel heavy for its size.
- Storing
- Apples keep about 3 weeks at room temperature, or 4–6 weeks refrigerated — cold storage roughly doubles their shelf life. Cooked apples (like applesauce) freeze well for about 8 months.
- Prepping
- Apples brown quickly once cut; a squeeze of lemon juice slows the browning.

Key metrics
Nutrient density
Per 100 kcal, apple delivers about 2% of a Daily Value on average across 22 beneficial nutrients. The score is its percentile for that measure among the 177 foods in our database — higher means more nutrition per calorie. How this is calculated.
Density counts protein, fiber, and vitamins and minerals (not fat, sodium, or sugar), each capped so a single nutrient can’t dominate, with a calorie floor so very-low-calorie foods aren’t overstated. It measures nutrition per calorie within our database — a useful guide, not a complete verdict on how “healthy” a food is.
