Nopony was going to STARVE- they don't JUST eat apples, and AJ's farm isn't he only farm. In that flashback of AJ's, they had to ration apples because this was WAY back in the day when I believe food was probably less abundant. Even if it wasn't, they never said ponies were starving because of it. They only said they had to ration, which means perhaps the price of apples were high, or only certain rich ponies could have get any apples, or perhaps a limit to how many apples could be bought from that farm was up or something.

ALTHOUGH, I did think RD was being rather selfish with her cider obsession. AJ's product and therefore her farm were clearly at stake, and the amount of money she was going to make over the winter was crumbling before her eyes (How could she explain to Granny smith and Big Mac upon returning home that their entire applebuck season harvest was down the tubes at her responsibility?) RD should have been more respectful, although i can't complain since she's 100% in character.
