Now there is a point to everything. In this case, to grow something specific.
Why? That is beside the point, but in the fast-paced world of computing, it is imperative to have a slow hobby that forces you to slow down and think.
Anyway, back to the point at hand; if it looks like an apple, does it also cook like an apple?
A scientific test of apple roses with a control group for taste testing.
And as with any lesson, you learn it when you are trough - don’t trust the control of an old oven; get an oven thermometer.
The result of the peer-reviewed taste test was that the specific apple in testing tastes more like apple than the regular apple.
