Following his regeneration, the Tenth Doctor found an apple in Howard's dressing gown, which Jackie had provided him with. Jackie claimed that this was because Howard "sometimes" got hungry in his sleep. (TV: The Christmas Invasion)

Following his tenth regeneration, the Eleventh Doctor thought he wanted an apple but didn't like it. Amelia Pond disliked apples when she was young, until her mother began carving happy faces into them. She gave an apple with a carved happy face on it to the Doctor, who promised to keep it for later. After travelling forward twelve years, the Doctor proved his identity to now-grown Amy Pond by showing her the same apple, still fresh. (TV: The Eleventh Hour) He later enjoyed an apple he found on a prison ship. (TV: The God Complex)

In 2025, apples were genetically modified to taste like other things to get children to eat them. Rose Tyler, while visiting a storybook-based theme park, took a bite of one that tasted like cheeseburger, only to spit it out in disgust. (COMIC: Down the Rabbit Hole)

At some point in the far future the word "apple" was used in the prevailing calendar system, as the year 5000000000 was known to the locals as 5.5/Apple/26. (TV: The End of the World)
