[FONT size=+1]Johnny Appleseed was a legendary American who planted and supplied apple trees to much of the US. Many people think that Johnny Appleseed was fictional character, but he was a real person. Born in 1774 as John Chapman.

 I had a Johnny Appleseed story book when I was a kid....one of my favourites.  Pictures of JA were depicted with him wearing a pot for a hat.

Is Moosehead beer considered a fruit?    
When the End comes, don't worry if your party shoes are clean or not. Just make sure you have them on!

I'm of the opinion that beer is a vegetable.  Except Guinness, which is a full meal.

[p style="text-align: left;"][img style="width: 223px; height: 222px;" src="vny!://www.foodsubs.com/Photos/asianpear.jpg" border="0"][/p]     [a name="Asian_pear"][/a]Asian pear = apple pear = Japanese pear = Chinese pear = Oriental pear = sand pear = nashi = nashi pear = salad pear  Notes:         Asian pears are crunchy, juicy, and very fragrant.  Growers produce over twenty different varieties in an assortment of sizes and colors.   They're often served raw, but they can also be       cooked, though they never become as soft as cooked pears.   Substitutes:        Bosc pear (not as crisp and firm, nor as flowery in flavor) OR apple (different flavor, similar texture) OR quince (for stews or baked dishes)

in the photos above are both version of the white variety of the asian pear.

in second place would be the infamous

black cherry
