Yes, that’s right, you just saw a black apple…
We tend to think of apples as being red, though there are, of course, some green and yellow varieties. But did you know there are also black apples?
Called Black Diamond apples, they're found in Tibet and are from the Hua Niu family of apples, also known as the Chinese Red Delicious. Aside from the black outer colour—actually an extremely dark shade of purple—these apples look just like other Red Delicious apples. The unique apples owe their colour to their native geography in Nyingchi, a small city in the mountains of Tibet, where they receive a lot of ultraviolet light during the day but the temperature fluctuates dramatically at night, causing the skin to develop a deep, dark colour. The flesh inside looks like any other apple.
They are really rare and farmers don't grow them because it isn’t worth the money.
Are you going to pay $7 for a single apple?! Yeah… that’s how much they cost on average! $7!!!
Doesn’t it look like it came from a fairy tale?
Like… imagine Snow White’s stepmother giving her a black apple…
You know what black apples remind me of?
