I am becoming wary of companies' replies. Unless Bragg's grows all their own applies, which I doubt, it occurs to me they could be purchasing apples "straight from the farm" which do have Apeel or Organipeel, etc. applied by the farmers. Am I being too suspicious?I went to Bragg's website today, and the first page of their FAQ says:
"Does Bragg use Apeel, Organipeel, coatings, or additives to the apples used in Apple Cider Vinegar?
No, we do not use Apeel, Organipeel or any other coatings on apples used for ACV. There is only one way to produce Bragg raw, organic, unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar. We thrive on natural fermentation, so apples are never coated or altered. And that’s only possible with apples straight from the farm. Organic, fresh apples are the bedrock of our decades-old recipe and there is no changing that."
