My mom just bought a bunch of Sunkist oranges. Man, oranges are my favourite.

But they hurt my finger nails trying to open them. D:

Use a knife. Much cleaner. I hate oranges because of the mess they usually make. Sticky fingers suck.

I open oranges with my teeth.

Just to get it started anyways.

You bite into the skin, and just rip away a piece.

It's super easy to do, and I love how people give me insane looks when I do it. As if I'm some sort of trendsetter. Or moron.

But my favourite type of orange has to be Mandarin Oranges. The simplicity cant be beat in this day and age.

The best way to open an orange is with a spoon. Rip off the top and stick the spoon towards the bottom. It'll fall off itself.

Mandarins were in my top 3 fruit (together with bananas and apples), but then I discovered that they have the highest rate of pesticides in them.

I love opening oranges/tangerines in one pull. Then the skin looks like a big dong, complete with two balls. It never gets old.

oranges are good.

I only eat oranges when they're cut in half. Then I go all vampire on them. I actually don't eat the orange. Too fleshy and stuff. It makes me feel like I'm eating a goldfish.

I really will have to try that next time.

Ok.

You ate sushi before it was deemed popular to do so.

And you have influenced people to peel an orange in your unique manner.

I must keep an eye on you and your ways...

I bite grapefruits to get them started. But the rine leaves a quite bitter taste.

On a semi-fruit-based topic the Spartan apple was developed in the same town as my uncle lives.

Oh my, that sounds like those "I sat here first!"-"No, I sat here an hour ago!"-"Well I sat here first because I was born first"-things.
