I understand they are trying to avoid the risk of potentially introducing foreign flora/fauna into the country, but the airline really should've announced to passengers before deplaning that they can't take the in-flight food with them.

And customs should be waiving the fee, given the passengers were basically entrapped by the airline. A simple "hey we need to confiscate those apples, then you're free to go" would have made this a non-issue.
