I eat both on a daily basis, so I cannot possibly choose.

Apples, for it is the fruit of sin.

At least, that's what I believe.

Oh dear. I really should have checked I just didn't recall a poll like this. Sorry all. 

BTW. Oranges are more than one colour. There are green skinned oranges too.

No other fruit can match a really good orange. Here on Rhodes we have a variety called Merlin, and it tastes like … magic!

I can enjoy apples, too, but often I prefer them with a little cinnamon. I use both fruits in cooking; oranges mainly with chicken (citrus fruits make the meat juicier) and apples mainly with pork.

The only to two fruits I like, but I usually like then green apples, whilst less picky with oranges.

EDIT: oh, just like Kevin, I guess, though it could be Papirovka apples.

I love both, but only when the apple is of the Granny Smith variety.  Otherwise the citrus will always prevail!

Neither are very good for the teeth I'm afraid.

That's weird. LOL  How about other citrus fruit?

I love the smell of oranges.  Not a big fan of raw apples though.  I think it's a textural thing.

All oranges are not made equal though.  The flesh has to be tender and the juice tangy and the skin easy to peel.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Hard one. It's like comparing two unlike things.
