What kind of fruits were apples again?
Oh yes, they were apples-in-French. BRBR

Apples, pears, and quinces are pomes, at least in English. The definition
is a fleshy fruit with the seeds arranged inside a stiff compartment with a
technical name I don't remember. The French word for apple is pomme, with
two m's.

My current (not "currant") dictionary (by Microsoft no less!) says:
pome /pom/n : a fleshy fruit that has a central core typically containing
five seeds, e.g. an apple or a pear [14C. Via Old French Latin pomum
"apple."]

Who is nitpicking now?
