Eternal Food

When Giada cuts an apple for the turkey stuffing, she gives a flat cut on four sides and outs away the rest somewhere. Trash may be.
An apple ages like us, but quicker. With it, the apple brings the eternity and the perishability. Its eternity through the nourishment. Processed food and all the snacks, with no beginning or end of their life, hide you from the cycle of life.
Dried apples are for a time of harsh winter.
