“How do you like them apples” is an expression that supposedly originated during the first World War, when the Allies' anti-tank grenade was colloquially called a “toffee apple” because of its bulb-like appearance on a stick. The phrase was a taunt against the enemy...“

Muchas gracias, amigo!
According to Early Sports and Pop Culture History Blog, this expression dates back to at least the year 1895. For example, it appears in the newspaper The Eagle, September 26, 1895:
“Bryan is the best cotton market in this section of the state and has received more cotton than any other town in this section. How do you like them apples?'”
Interesting, isn't it?!
Thank you!

This is a marathon, not a sprint, idiot!
