Is it possible to jam a straw in an orange a la Tropicana commercials? It looks pretty daunting to my eyes, but it might be one of those things, that if you do it just right…
Yes. If you’re not careful, it’ll go straight through your hand as well.
whew!
I was afraid this was about…,
well let’s be glad it wasn’t and leave it at that.
(tip-toeing out of the room quickly)
You probably can’t do it with yer basic McDonal’s straw, but getcha a straw made of a sufficiently heavy grade of plastic and it shouldn’t be a problem.
You and me both. That was a close one.
The trick is to hold your thumb down on one end. When you stab the orange the air inside gets trapped and this makes the straw rigid enough to pierce the orange. This method will work on a raw potato as well.
Yes, but will that enable one to drink the juice contained therein?

Well, who wants to drink potato juice?
Maybe not fresh potato juice, but let it sit for a while, then distill it… oh wait…they really make vodka out of wheat don’t they…never mind. Potato juice, ick, ick.
