Wax on Apples----Safe?

Hi,
If u take an apple, red one.....u can try using a knife....to 'scratch' the surface....u will see an accumulation of wax....
Is that safe?

I'm eating an apple right now.
The wax is there.......I tried to remove some, with a knife....but I think it still leftover some.

It may be called wax but is it chemically safe wax or a wax subsitute that's within safe limits? Any known/unknown side-effects beyond safe limits in the long run?
I personally would brush and scrub away the wax.
-
its called edible wax.
go wash with detergent if you're paranoid. -
Hang the apple over a lighted stove before you eat it, the wax will have melted, along with other things.
-
my parents and friends says its better to eat the apple together with the skin, because the wax is a natural protection for the apple against external weather, worms, bacteria etc, and is good for the health?
-
Waa.......detergent....
-_-
Maybe I should add whitener too....
And maybe softener also...
