Template:Food
Red Apples are food items that were added in early Indev. Apples exist in Beta mode, as well as the removed Indev, Infdev and Alpha modes. Apples heal 
, but are not a reliable food source.
When Indev was still new, Apples were items brought in to replace Brown Mushrooms to heal health. The player would spawn in an Indev House by a chest containing 99 Apples and other tools. In later updates, the chests inside the House were removed, and Apples became impossible to find in a map.
Apples remained impossible to find until Survival Multiplayer. To find one, the player must kill Notch. In addition to his inventory, Notch will drop a Red Apple. The only other way to obtain apples is to hack the player's inventory.
Since 1.8, apples can now be legitimately obtained through chests in strongholds.
As a crafting ingredient
