'BE CAREFUL WHEN EATING APPLES' This was the emel heading i received from a good friend of mine. Please don't eat the skin of the apples because it's coated with wax. Is this true?? Well, I try to search for becox wax but i didn't obtain any info on it.

Check before you eat many of the fruits. WAX is being used for preservation purposes & cold storage. You might be suprised especially apples from the USA & other parts are more than one year old, though it would look fresh. Becox wax is coated, preventing bacteria to enter. So it does not get dry. Please eat apples after removing the wax as demonstrated below. Please follow this & let others know...

This is the images i got from the email..
With this info that is fast spreading all over the internet, i suggest that we should be very careful in buying & eating apples. Who knows this message might be real. If you wana make sure, bring the same color cutter & do the same as above when buying at the supermarkets. hahahahaha.... I wonder where the apples supplied & given to school kids are from?? hmmm... And have anyone ever tried to grow apples here?
