I'm dealing with a serious issue at home, so naturally I came here for advice or perhaps just a bit of emotional support.

My wife picked up a new kind of apple we had never heard of: Piñata. After trying a couple my wife declared them the worst apple she has ever tasted. I thought surely she was excepting the Red Delicious, so I asked. The answer shook me to my core: "They're even worse."

I'm really struggling with this. Should I take my wife to the ER to see if maybe she had a stroke? Or maybe a psychiatrist? And please don't suggest that I try one for myself. I have eaten some disgusting things. Durian comes to mind. But I draw the line at something purported to be even worse than a Red Delicious.

Thoughts? Words of support? Suggestions for environmentally responsible disposal?

A. Give the apples to someone you really do not like. Or....

B. Come on! The answer is right in the name of the apples- pinata. Grab a baseball bat and get to work.

QuotePiñata is a beautiful bi-colored apple that was developed by researchers in Dresden-Pillnitz, Germany over two decades. In the 1970s, researchers (using traditional cross-pollination methods) crossed three heirloom varieties – American classic Golden Delicious, England's Cox's Orange Pippin, and the Duchess of Oldenburg from Russia – to create a new apple cultivar, which they called Pinova.

Not wise to trust the Brits or the Ruskies with Apples.

Been thinking about using the Piñatas as piñatas...but I think it's a bad idea. What if the seeds from the apples get into the soil? What if it turns out to be an aggressive, invasive species that I cannot eradicate? What if it takes over my yard, then the neighborhood, then larger and larger areas until it overtakes all the orchards until they are the only apples left? It would be like the rabbits in Australia.

I was thinking about the word "luncheon" so asked the google machine to define it.  It's just a "formal word for lunch."

So when you are heading out to eat today, tell people you are having a luncheon at Arby's.

Maybe tomorrow you could tell them you are going to tiffin at Arby's. Or perhaps your midday repast.
