Excerpt
Apples
Apples are a symbol of fertility that have always been associated with love, as they were sacred to Rhiannno, Celtic Goddess of love and marriage, as well as Viking and Greek love and fertility rituals. In early British folk magic, a woman can enslave the man of her choice by sleeping with an apple next to her skin and then persuading him to eat it. Whether making the fruit into dumpling, tart, or turnover modified the magical effect is not recorded. In some ancient Scandinavian legends, the apple is described as the food of the gods. The belief was that the gods, grown old and decrepit, were rejuvenated by feasting on apples
