....if Eve let Sin into the world by eating an apple, this tasty fruit would be banned by God.

Is there a specific type of apple that is forbidden? If not, then did everyone forget that this was the first temptation? Coveting women, goods, etc is a sin, but doing exactly what caused the first sin is considered fine?

Being aware they were naked ?
This being said, now read this and it will all make sense.

An apple is just a handy form the European painters used when the painted the scene. And they used European models, too, which is why everybody looks so white in them.

I do believe the "Apple" was symbolic for the forbidden fruit.
Use your immigration for what the forbidden fruit was.

Well, first of all, you need to prove that it was an apple that they ate. The Bible is silent as to the fruit they ate.

I'm afraid that the specific tree on which that particular apple grew no longer exists.
