Apple sauce or applesauce is a purée made of apples. It can be made with peeled and/or unpeeled apples and a variety of spices (commonly cinnamon and allspice). Flavorings or sweeteners such as sugar or honey are also commonly added. Apple sauce is inexpensive and is widely used in the United Kingdom, North America and some European countries.
It has been suggested that it can substitute for fat (e.g. butter/oil) in baking.
Commercial versions of apple sauce are readily available in supermarkets. It may be packaged in several ways, including: glass jars, tins, or plastic tubs. It is also sold in serving-size small plastic cups.
Apple sauce is made by cooking down apples with water or apple cider (fresh apple juice) to the desired level. More acidic apples will render a finer purée; the highly acidic Bramley apple is popular for creating a very fine purée. Apples might or might not be peeled; sugar, spices, or lemon juice might also be added for flavoring. Apple butter is similar to apple sauce, but has a high cider to apple ratio, of 8 liters to 100 kilograms.
Applesauce is a 2015 horror comedy film written and directed by Onur Tukel. The film stars Tukel, Max Casella, Trieste Kelly Dunn, Jennifer Prediger, and Dylan Baker.
Applesauce premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 19, 2015. The film was distributed by MPI Media Group and was released on VOD and DVD on November 24, 2015.
Ronnie Scheib of Variety praised Applesauce as "Onur Tukel's latest and most accomplished microbudget exercise in cynical absurdism" and added, "With its sarcastic dialogue, deadpan humor, believably flawed characters and surreal logic, 'Applesauce' may expand Tukel's growing indie fan base into niche release." Eric Kohn of Indiewire gave the film a modest "B" rating, calling it a "spot-on urban satire." He further wrote:
I eat a mango and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
Star fruit so simple and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
How could I feel so-so when I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
Tart but not total and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
When I was young I thought fruit was an infinite thing
I'd be sad to wake up and find all of my cherry trees
Are charred or they're rotted to ruin
It seems we all can't last
Oh Pink Lady your days so distinguished are a movement so fluid
So smooth against my palm
Reminisce of the days when they all praised your sweet Red Delicious
And a farmer picks a good thing
(When you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
And a kid he picks a good thing
(When you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
And a chef she makes a good thing
(When you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
And a mayor eats a good thing
(When you think you don't know you don't know you don't know)
Ripe and whole we can move outside us [x4]
Take for me take for me pictures of valleys with apples hung
Dangling dangling they will be released every little piece does make a one
Brown on the ground can you show me a way I can simplify
Comfort me comfort me after the battles and sleepless nights
I'm just a rush
Rush to blow upon the fire
You're just a rush
Rush to blow open my mind
[X2]
I eat a mango and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
Star fruit so simple and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
How could I feel so-so when I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
Tart but not total and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
When I want fruit I can find it wherever I please
What if I cracked my eyes and find dudes on the street
Waiting in lines or scrounging for berries?
I'm losing things so fast.
One day maybe I'll have a cool kid with a granny but
I don't have to pose for applesauce on clothes.
Reminisce of the days when my mom made it all seem delicious.

Take for me take for me pictures of valleys with apples hung
Dangling, dangling they will be released every little piece does make a one
Brown on the ground can you show me a way I can simplify
Comfort me, comfort me after the battles and sleepless nights

I'm just a rush
Rush to blow upon the fire
You're just a rush
Rush to blow open my mind
[X2]
So why should I rush, rush to blow upon the fire
Why do I rush, rush to blow upon the fire
[X2]
One the eagle
Two the noble
Three the lizard
Four the soul
