How did he split the apple with his bare hooves?

BABY APPLEJACK!!!

What was the language at the third panel???

@PacificGreen  
And cutting fruit cleanly in half with his bare hooves.

So Big Mac’s talent is not only apples, but also being a good brother. :)

@Aasha  
She never did define what exactly her talent was, just:

Her actual magic talent– regardless of what prompted her to understand her true calling and get her mark, or any destiny foofaraw associated with it– is pretty clearly “Runnin’ An Apple Farm Real Good”.

Kinda how three red apples have little to do with Applejack’s ‘talent’ of loving her family as her back story explained it.

@Background Pony #3A02  
In this interpretation, yes. Canonically, hard to say. :)

So…a cutie mark isn’t just a symbol of ones special talent, it also shows how one first discovered their special talent, and how it was first used for good?
 
I think this because the apple on big mac’s flank was how he first used his talent for good, but his special talent isn’t cutting apples in half, it’s looking out for his younger siblings. So in my opinion, the apple is a symbol of the day he found his talent, and the cutie mark itself, is what the pale symbolizes. That he will always be there for his siblings.
 
If that makes any sense.

THAT’S LIQUID FAMILY PRIDE

Vikings were a Matriarchal society. They were also Vikings.

Matriarchy is glorious. (I’m quoting something. Don’t look it up unless you’re ultimately depraved. ;D )

Awwwwww~<3

And that is when Big Mac discovered his talent of having to cater to every whim of the female members of the family due to being a lowly male work horse slave.
 
I kid, I kid.

Nobody outside the family knows, but Big Mac’s special talent is cutting apples in half with his MIND.
