This is an Impossible Riddle?

Okay guys, I need your help. I don't know the answer to this riddle, but if you know, or think you know, please take a minute to answer it. Thanks, this is VERY important to me.

Four perfect logicians, who all knew each other from being part of the Perfect Logicians' Club, sat around a table that had a dish with 11 apples in it. The chat was intense, and they ended up eating all the apples. Everybody had at least one apple, and everyone knew that fact, and each logician knew the number of apples that he ate. They didn't know how many apples each of the others ate, though. They agreed to only ask questions they didn't know the answers to:

Alonso: Did you eat more apples than I did, Bertrand?
Bertrand: I don't know. Did you, George, eat more apples than I did?
George: I don't know.
Kurt: Aha!

Kurt figured out how many apples each person ate. Can you do the same?
Someone has to know this. I heard the answer is in a book called Entertain Your Brain.
