The question is can we engineer such a food. I know many people who would say that we simply can’t do it with current or near-term technology (like, say, in twenty years).
I don’t think technology is the limiting factor so much as knowing what it is about apples (or other foods) that makes them healthful.
If we actually knew how our bodies worked and what they needed, we could probably make optimally healthy foods right now.
