1 This picture has me EXTREMELY skeptical of your site that I otherwise love. If two apples were blended genetically speaking the chances of the split to form as in this picture are almost zero.

And yes, the lines on them are straight . Posted on Mar 24, 2014 by judd 8 The next time it happens, upload a photo or something! (But without using paint ) Posted on Mar 24, 2014 by Alexx
