Nutritional Values for apples?

Kpcardona

I was digging through "My Food" trying to make my entries more accurate, using this website for the fruit at least. I tried searching different types of apples, but it has just a general "apples" with modifications such as skinless and such. Do all apples (at the same weight) have the same or nearly the same values/calories??

The website does have individual options for different types of oranges (navel, mandarin, ect), it also seems pretty accurate, IMO.

I think they're all quite similar. Why not use the database? I have had no problem finding the type of apple I'm having.

Edit: here you go, I've even changed all the weights so they're roughly the same

Oh, just for ease of use. That way I don't have to go digging for an entry that is correct and has the listing in grams.

I was just curious mostly as some apples taste quite different from others.

I must admit, I'm surprised Granny Smith and golden delicious are so similar with one being sweet and the other not. Benefits of being bored - learned something new

Nerding is fun! I'd think they'll both contain the same amount of sugar, but Granny Smith has more acid. Acid? Sounds dangerous

I use the Nutritiondata entry for my apples because it is easier than having to dig through and find one that matches. It is weird that it has the same for all apples but different for most oranges.

I like the Calorie King website.
