Yes I agree and are aware of that. Problem is it is cheaper to use slave labor in China to pick apples.

“Re: 136 - maybe if they harvest them before they drop. Drops are not used for juice.”

In colonial days onwards all apples were used. B grade apples such as drops and windblown (off trees) apples were preferred for making cider, that would slowly ferment into an alcoholic apple cider. Being that many drops were bruised and already fermenting in place.
