1400 Varieties of Apples

There are 1400 varieties of apples or so I read today in an health food article.  Eating apples are great for snacks, instead of snacking on something else that isn't healthy.  They are good to fight infections and so many other things.  Guess that's why I started eating them in the first place.  Except I haven't eaten any lately!  I forget!  I need to carry one around with me at all times.  I don't.  I have been eating a banana a day, does that count?
