Here Comes the Long-Lasting Apple


Posted Thursday, November 12, 2009 - 12:48pm

Scientists in Australia say they've developed an apple that can stay fresh at room temperature and, if refrigerated, can last for months.

The apple for now is called RS103-130, but I think it's safe to assume they'll come up with a catchier name for it. The fruit's developers (that sounds weird, doesn't it?) say taste tests indicate that it is "the world's best apple."
