what kind of apples? I like fuji apples, but not the others. Some oranges suck, I think I like navel oranges...

apple generally - i like crispy not crazy sour apples. Oranges i don't mind, when oranges are ice cold though there are fewer delicious treats on a hot hot day.

Orange, especially in juice form. Apples give me a tummy ache, for some reason.

I have four oranges on my shelf and a brand new carton of orange juice in my refrigerator. But, apple cider is awesome. Do they still make black cider? Hornsby's, I think it was, or maybe Woodchuck. Can't find it anymore.

No real preference between the two, but I like them both for different reasons and at different times.

I eat more oranges during the summer and more apples during fall and winter.

It's the fiber. Apples aren't completely digestible. I once ate the equivalent of 5 apples (dried slices, so it was easy to overdo) and had the craziest stomachache for a day. Learned my lesson.

I like oranges better, but not by a huge amount.

oranges flavor is too inconsistent, easy to get a sour orange, when was the last time you got a sour apple that wasn't supposed to be sour

apples have more consistency in their flavor

Navel oranges, almost never get a sour one

I was going to post that. I'm going to have both with a yogurt later for lunch. Yum.
