CBP at pre-clearance says you can't carry the apple in to the US?

I don't know what we have become. My wife and our 5 years old child are both GE member with US passports, and on her return flight from YYZ to the States, the CBP offers sends me wife to inspection after she declared she had food which was cut pieces of apple for our child. The agent tells my wife she can't take it with her after she told him she has apple with her for our child to eat.

Is this a joke that you can't take apple in your back pack with you to the states? I thought it used to be prohibited food items like meat or seeds, etc. Anyone know if this is real? Thank you

And they always ask you very annoying questions like, where did you go, why, how long at any POE. I wonder if these questions are asked to all US citizens or just to US citizens with different color.

thanks
