Apples are most commonly associated with [[Whispy Woods]] who almost always drops them during fights, but they can be dropped by other entities as well.

When not trying to avoid having them dropped on his head, Kirby is quite fond of eating apples, either inhaling them whole or taking bites out of them in cut-scenes. Despite this, apples do not normally appear as food in most games, particularly in those which feature apples as hazardous objects.

Apples are inanimate objects about the size of [[Kirby]], usually dropped by [[Whispy Woods]], that can damage playable characters on contact. They yield no [[Copy Ability]] when swallowed, nor do they restore [[stamina]]. As such, their main use is as ammunition against Whispy Woods or other enemies that use them, such as [[Poppy Bros. Jr.]], who can sometimes be seen balancing on them.

This article is about apples in a general context. For the apples used as currency in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe and Super Kirby Clash, see Gem Apple. For the collectable fruit in Kirby Mass Attack, see Fruit. For food in a general context, see Food.

Apples serve many differing roles within the Kirby series, appearing either as hazards to be avoided, food to be eaten, or in some other capacity. Apples are most commonly associated with Whispy Woods who almost always drops them during fights, but they can be dropped by other entities as well.

When not trying to avoid having them dropped on his head, Kirby is quite fond of eating apples, either inhaling them whole or taking bites out of them in cutscenes. Despite this, apples do not normally appear as food in most games, particularly in those which feature apples as hazardous objects.

Apples are inanimate objects about the size of Kirby, usually dropped by Whispy Woods, that can damage playable characters on contact. They yield no Copy Ability when swallowed, nor do they restore health. As such, their main use is as ammunition against Whispy Woods or other enemies that use them, such as Poppy Bros. Jr., who can sometimes be seen balancing on them.

Against common expectation, apples appear far more often as hazards to be avoided in the Kirby series than otherwise. This tradition started with Kirby's Dream Land and has persisted throughout the entire series, with only a few games assigning apples to other roles.
