Caution for Children Less Than 4 Years Old
Large pieces of apple, thickly spread peanut butter and toothpicks are choking risks for children under the age of 4.
For Grown-ups
Serve extra pieces of apple with a selection of cheeses. Try creamy Brie, a sharp aged cheddar, or a tangy blue cheese. Dip apple slices in water and lemon juice to prevent browning.
