Now That Makes Sense

I no longer remember what I was taught when young about Johnny Appleseed (John Chapman) and why he did what he did with all those apple seeds etc. Maybe I thought he was some kind of proto-environmentalist. In truth he may have been kind of a kook. A couple years ago Mental Floss Blog had a post of four things you didn't know about Appleseed-Chapman and linked to it again last week. So with apple season really getting underway in the Upper Midwest I thought I would link to it as well.

And to no one's surprise the reason for all those seeds on the American frontier: Hard Apple Cider.
