So a week or two ago, my 10-year-old informed me that she'd learned at school (???) that an apple gives you as much energy as coffee.  I probably responded with some sort of snark - I don't really remember.  I hadn't  had any coffee OR apples, probably.Forgot the conversation entirely until this morning, when I was whining because nobody had made any danged coffee, and I didn't want to clean the coffeemaker (because it's a pain) and we were running a bit late, but I was thinking aloud that maybe I'd stop and buy some coffee, or MAYBE I could just hold out until I got to the office.10-year-old looks at me and deadpans "why don't you just have an apple?"So I did.  For the sake of SCIENCE.  But no.  Just no.  4951

@JeepHair: So for the sake of science - and if I run out of coffee - it is not the same?Maybe they just meant in caloric value? and not  stimulant?

It seems like a weird caloric comparison, but maybe.  But no, I would say that apple did NOT give me any energy nor did it improve my crabby morning mood.  Next time, I'll just clean the stupid coffeemaker. 4951

I think it's the sugar in the apples that's supposed to get you going. I get hungry after eating an apple.

Gotta have my coffee every morning. I think it is more habit and taste for me. Sometimes I will have what we refer to as a TeaBomb (Green Tea mixed with LiftOff; boosts metabolism, energy, cognitive clarity, etc ).   But, I also eat an Apple later in the day. I have had a craving for apples for almost 2 months now. I eat a minimum of one small apple Every day. 4951
