Apples and Oranges

"You can't do that!  It's like comparing apples and oranges!"  Lacking access to the trusty Venn Diagram, here goes:
    Similarities:
         Both are fruits.
         Both grow on trees.
         Both have seeds inside the fruit.
         Both are round, diameter usually between size of baseball and softball.
         Both rate high in nutrition value, with Vitamin C and lots of fiber.
         Both can be  a source of fruit juice.
         Both can be eaten raw, or combined with other ingredients.
   Differences:
         Apples, when ripe, are red, green, or yellow.
         Oranges, when ripe, are orange.
        Apples grow in wider range of climate.
        The fruit of the orange is sectioned.

  There, that wasn't so hard.  You will find that, deep down, all fruits are pretty much alike, regardless of the color of their skin.
