The rotten apple is used in the Biohazard and Mourning's End Part I quests. Although they have an "Eat" option, rotten apples may not be eaten, attempting to do so will result in a "Nothing interesting happens." message in the chatbox. They are aesthetically similar to rotten tomatoes, although appear duller in colour and differ slightly in shape.
