Apples account for 18.9% of fruit intake among people ages 2 to 19 in the United States, according to the study published Monday in Pediatrics. Apples, along with apple juice, citrus juice and bananas made up almost half of fruit consumption. Kids in the United States consumed 1.25 cups of fruit every day, on average, the study said. That's within the range recommended by the 2010 dietary guidelines released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which say children should eat 1 to 2 cups of fruit per day.

"Saturday Night Live" cast member Taran Killam just won a new role, and it's a "huge" one. Killam will play Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on this season's "SNL" -- the variety show's 41st. Killam's debut in character will almost surely be on October 3, the night "SNL" returns from its summer hiatus. "SNL" is one of America's foremost sources of political satire, so Killam might be feeling the pressure. He has been a cast member since 2010 and has impersonated celebrities like Brad Pitt and Matthew McConaughey. But there's no celebrity quite like Trump.
