As American As Apple Pie?

     Am I the only person in America that reads the little stickers on the Apples at the supermarket?  I only buy apples grown in the United States. Why, when I live in one of the two biggest apple producing states in the United States, (NY and CA), would I buy an apple grown in another country? Why do we even allow foreign apples to be sold in the U.S?  What's more American than apple pie? What's less American than apple pie made with apples from another country. Buy American apples whenever you can.
By the way: (and thanks to those who commented), the state of California grows tons of delicious FUJI APPLES every year!
