∙ 14y agoThis term comes from the Christian religion, wherein there is a story of Adam and Even in the garden of eden. Eve eats from the tree of knowledge, a fruit called an apple, and shares it with Adam. As Adam takes a bite, God comes down and casts them out of the garden because they were told never to eat from this tree. As punishment, among other things, God causes that piece of apple to stick forever in Adam's throat, thus... the Adam's Apple.
