It may sound revolting to many of us, but shoppers could soon find bubblegum-flavoured apples on supermarket shelves.
A US company has revealed plans to introduce the bizarre new food to the UK.
Agricoat NatureSeal makes flavoured coatings for fresh produce to prolong their shelf life which includes a variety of flavours.
The idea of the flavoured versions is to help parents get their children to eat more fruit and veg.

These could include bubblegum, vanilla, toffee, blackcurrant and cinnamon, said industry journal The Grocer after the American tech company exhibited at last week’s Casual Dining trade show in London.
It added that discussions were already taking place with UK food companies to use the technology on flavouring fresh produce, potentially for snacks and school lunchboxes for instance.
The coating uses vitamins and minerals on precut fruit and veg to extend their shelf life by up to 21 days and claims adding novel flavours will not compromise the colour or crispness of the produce.
A spokesman for Agricoat said: ‘NatureSeal is designed to inhibit browning in select fruits and vegetables while maintaining the texture.
‘Flavoured apples encourage children to consumer fruit while enjoying a flavour of their choice. We aim to create a unique product which will add variety and choice to healthy eating decisions.’
Recent health figures show just 18 per cent of children aged 5-15 eat the recommended five standard portions of fruit and veg per day.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
