apples
An unlikely location for an acclaimed dessert makes us wonder if it really is as good as they say.
Bourbon is ready to give us great toast with the flavor of fresh baked apple pie in just three minutes.
They might look kind of funny at first glance, but now we’re laughing all the way to the kitchen.
Sure anyone can plonk an apple on a hamburger, but can they make it taste as sweet as it looks?
We try the delectable new drink that’s so exclusive it’s only available in four of the country’s prefectures.
Snow White and the Wicked Queen cosplay is now complete with this specially grown black “poison apple”.
When travelling to America, most Japanese people usually have one or two “must-eat” foods on their itinerary, the most popular of which are probably hamburger and apple pie.
When our Japanese reporter, Yoshio, visited America last month, he wasted no time in seeking out the former. His haste and curiosity led him to something called the Donut Burger, which, as you might imagine, didn’t go over so well.
Determined not to commit the same mistake with his apple pie, Yoshio had his American acquaintances point him in the direction of the best damn all-American apple pie the country has to offer.
Where did that take him? Check his report below to find out!
