How the hell do you eat a kumquat?

you eat it whole

 

[UFO]

I'm 30 years old and I've attempted to eat an orange.

 

[kulapik]

You don't, you squeeze the juice out

 

[Lead]

Uh you peel it, pull it apart, remove the white pith in the centre and eat the slices.

This.
I had no idea there was any other way of doing it?

 

[.JayZii]

Just know that the first five times you attempted it, whoever was in the room with you watching you struggle your way through the process thought you were a fucking alien.

 

[Audioboxer]

Throw it away and buy a grapefruit

Absolutely woeful first post.

 

[davepoobond]

i drink orange juice instead

 

[quesalupa]

Put the whole thing in your mouth without peeling and swallow.

Best thing about this thread has been you popping in every few minutes to show how angered you are by the threads existence.

Keep it up!

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

I don't, they're a pain to eat. Gets my fingers all fucking sticky and then the taste doesn't compensate for it.

 

[n64coder]

Oranges are the best. But if you don't like how waxy they are try some nectarines, or Cuties, from your grocery store.

Buy Cuties/Halos if they are available where you live.

Cuties/Halos are a brand name of mandarin oranges.

How the hell do you eat a kumquat?

Put the whole thing in your mouth. It's about the size of a grape and the skin is edible.

 

[strafer]

[manzoman96]

First things first, you throw that shit in the fridge, and let it chill for an hour or so. THEN you peel and consume. Chilled oranges are like an orgasm for the soul, not just the body, trust me on this.

For me this applies to most fruit. Mmmmm... Chilled fruit...

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

I cut it into four wedges and peel each individually.

 

[crimzonflame]

I swear to god I sometimes think GAF is some sort of AskJeeves for lame alien invaders.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if one day someone on GAF posted, "About to across the street for the first time, any advice?"

Do I sound angry in my posts? Sorry if that's how it came across, I was going for more astonished/bemused.

To be fair, you started a thread asking how to eat an orange.

 

[triplestation]

beam that shit to the wall over and over until its a pulp and lick the wall clean while i cry

 

[johancruijff]

 

[Ambient80]

I swear to god I sometimes think GAF is some sort of AskJeeves for lame alien invaders.

Lol, perfect

The easiest way is to just cut it in fourths and eat it.

Peeling it is easy too but takes longer and can be messier.

 

[mjc]

Make one cut along the side, work your thumb in between the fruit and the skin and just peel it off it pieces.

Victory.

 

[peakish]

Just eat the god damn wedges. Sucking them dry, wtf?

 

[Emperor Bohe]

bruh even my cat knows how to eat an orange

 

[zeox]

Just eat the god damn wedges. Sucking them dry, wtf?

yeah, what the hell. Sucking them dry has never even crossed my mind

 

[jesu]

Cut it into quarters and eat them so that you're left with the peel in your mouth like a boxers mouth guard.

 

[whatevermort]

How do you not know how to eat an orange. How have you reached 22 without having eaten an orange properly. How have you only had 5 in your life?

New question: have you ever eaten a peach? A plum?

An apple?

 

[d00d3n]

Process in a factory, add sugar, and drink as branded "orange juice"

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

Learning how to peel an orange with a spoon changed my life

 

[OneEightZero]

ProTip: Roll the hell out of it first before you peel it. It separates the peel from the flesh and makes it super easy to get off. When the entire outside feels swollen, you're ready to peel.

Spoiler

ProTip 2: Use your upper front teeth to make the initial puncture. Stop wasting knives.

 

[zbarron]

Supreme it. I always hated the pith as a kid and would just suck the juice out. Once I learned how to do this I actually started enjoying oranges.

 

[LionPride]

I swear to God, folks here ask some of the most basic questions. I sometimes question how people fucntion

 

[StrangeTaco]

Huh, I may actually have to try this. Love the flavor of oranges/grapefruit but hate the stringy pith and whatnot.

 

[Ray Wonder]

I hate all of you. This isn't up for debate. It's a simple process. Peel. Eat.

Peel. Eat.

 

[Slime Scholar]

The hell are people even talking about in here? Sucking them dry? Just peel it and eat the damn orange. Are you throwing out tiny, dried up slices of fruit? I've seriously never heard of this.

 

[Oblivion]

I peel the outer skin and then peel the inner skin. Any other way is uncivilized.

 

[Delicious Waffles]

You peel the skin off, try and peel off as much as the white stuff as you can, split it apart, and eat.

Cuties/Halos are a brand name of mandarin oranges.

Yep and they are pretty good. I just use that brand name because you know they will be seedless, since most do not want to deal with those. Toss-up whether they will have seeds even if they say they won't without the Cuties/Halo brand.

 

[Walter White Walker]

Peel. Eat the wedges.

I don't even...

 

[BigMack]

Marge must be one happy lady.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTEwiPEgjWg

Well, huh. I've been doing it the hard way all these years.

 

[Aaron Strife]

Like a good marriage

 

[Glass Shark]

Do you just suck the wedges dry and set them aside?

is this actually a thing that people do?

 

[Victarion]

Uh you peel it, pull it apart, remove the white pith in the centre and eat the slices.

This is the only proper way. Slicing an orange is savagery.

SMITHERS
Mr. Simpson, are you listening? Simpson!
HOMER
Huh? Oh yeah, I was listening. Very funny.
MOE
Oh, you were not! You were just eating a damn orange!
HOMER
Yes, to the untrained eye, I'm eating an orange. But to the eye that has brains, I'm making a point about marriage. For you see, marriage is a lot like an orange. First, you have the skin. Then the sweet, sweet innards. Mmm...

Homer devours the orange.

APU
I don't understand.
WILLY
If I wanted to see a man eat an orange, I would have taken the orange-eating class!

Cut to another classroom. Hans Moleman is the teacher.

HANS MOLEMAN
The eating of an orange is a lot like a good marriage.
ABE SIMPSON
Just eat the damn oranges!

 

[Aruarian Reflection]

Here you go GAF, I made a video

[How About No]

Peel it, eat the skin. The juice in the center is poisonous

 

[Mr. Blonde]

 

[RK9039]

I normally just eat the orange bit.
