Really? I adored them as a child. We had a crabapple tree in the back 
of our yard and i was always eating them ripe off the tree, with no 
unpleasant consequences that i recall. I remember them being about 
the size of golf balls. They weren't used for anything in the house, 
so i think i was the only person who ate them.

I seem to recall they used to sell sweetened, spiced, slightly 
pickled artificially colored crab apples in glass jars (back in the 
50s and 60s) - or am i hallucinating again?
