Another theory as to why the Apple was chosen as the "Forbidden Fruit," is the fact that when you cut an apple in half sideways (horizontally across its middle), then look at the center of each half - the "seeded" section - you will see the unmistakable image of a Pentagram. Some individuals have postulated that the Apple was selected by the early Roman Catholic Church as being the "Forbidden Fruit" due to the image of a Pentagram found at its center.

The five pointed star of the Pentagram The Pentagram through History.
The pentagram symbol today is ascribed many meanings and deep significance, though much of this is very recent. However, it has been used throughout history and in many contexts: * The earliest known use of the pentagram dates back to around 3500BC at Ur of the Chaldees in ancient Mesopotamia where it was symbolic of imperial power. * Amongst the Hebrews, the symbol was ascribed to Truth and to the five books of the Pentateuch. It is sometimes, incorrectly, called the Seal of Solomon (see Hexagram). * In Ancient Greece, it was called the Pentalpha, being geometrically composed of five A's. Unlike earlier civilizations, the Greeks did not generally attribute other symbolic meanings to the letters of their alphabet, but certain symbols became connected with Greek letter shapes or positions (e.g., Gammadion, Alpha-Omega http://ecauldron.net/pentagram.php
