10 Ways to Peel an Orange - You Suck at Cooking (episode 143)

Peeling an orange isn't easy. Unless you're strong and good at peeling oranges. Then it's easy. Otherwise it's difficult. Unless you know other techniques. Then it's easy. Unless you're bad at those techniques. Then it's hard. Unless you have a good friend who is good at peeling oranges. Then it's easy. Unless that friend never existed and you just made them up to cope with reality. Then it's hard. You just never know.

I can’t imagine how long it took to get the shot of the oranges attracting mates in the wild. They’re actually quite shy in public.

Nothing like unsettling orange peel voodoo doll to end the day. This has a BDG feel to it and I love it.

My preferred method is to inflate the orange until it turns into a pomelo and the peel bursts from the pressure.

Fun fact, in the UK we have an orange made out of chocolate. It's called a Terry's chocolate orange. Terry is real.

1:25 Another Fun Fact: YSAC already answered the question "What came first - the orange or the colour", and it is indeed the fruit. Before the orange arrived to England by trade, the color was called 'geolured' which basically translates to 'yellow-red'. You can also see how the word changed. From Sanskrit 'naranga', to Spanish 'naranja' or French 'narange'. The n attached to the indefinite article and from' a narange' it turned to 'an orange'. Some daily linguistic etymology for y'all! :)

Been watching this man since I was around 12. YSAC is an everloving constant in my life. He’s seen me through middle school and high school, and now he will see me off to college. I don’t even cook. Maybe I’ll start now. Thanks, YSAC.

I can confirm that Terry is a MVP. He protects more than just fruits. He's also protected my nuts. Thank you Terry.

I still can’t get over how good this man’s editing skills are.

I don’t know how you got your particular sense of humour, but I love it.

A friend of mine told me about a method her mom taught her, that the best way to peel an orange is to call it a banana, shame it for trying to do orange-y things, constantly tell it it's not a good enough banana and it needs to try harder, and punish it for not being yellow and banana-shaped. Takes a long time but if it works, the peel becomes as easy to peel as a banana peel. The only down-side apart from the time and effort involved is it makes the oranges taste bitter. Also, if this method fails, the orange will either run away from home or kill itself.

I just now, three months later, realised the connection between "Terry" and oranges.

Terry's Chocolate Oranges.

I wish I could subscribe all over again.

[siffrinisat]

Thank you, Terry. From now on, my oranges and myself will be safe forever.

Fun fact if you split and orange into clementine's you can use pressure to make them back into a full orange!!! instant peeled orange after peeling te little ones SO EASY!!!

Or you can simply find a clementine and peel it young, then raise the hairless clementine till its an adult orange and devour it tihs way! honestly the bond you forge will make it taste so so much

[Saphira.]

Oh, he is giving us honest ways to peel, I expected all memes.

[androart]

You should’ve turned terry inside out after sewing most of him and put the peel in then. Then he would be less rough around the edges and less likely to suffer from seam-allowance-atrophy

[gayfanta]

I have filled Terry with too many Orange peels. He has evolved and started protecting fruit from people. He's started to fill me with orange peels. He intends to transform me into his own Terry. The taste of the peels is forever in my mouth. He has sewn sheets of cloth to my skin. My screams are muffled.

[sordidknifeparty]

I really love this. I honestly clicked on this video expecting to learn an interesting new way of peeling an orange, but I'm so much happier with what I got.

[tatersalad]

Me: "There's ten ways to peel an- oh, wait, it's a YSAC video. Makes sense."

Another hilarious video! Thank you so much for making this, my dad has been a part-time caregiver for his girlfriend’s elderly father and that old man is obsessed with oranges. He is so obsessed that every morning he *has* to have fresh *hand squeezed* orange juice. One time my dad bought freshly squeezed orange juice from the store and the man refused to drink it! So my poor dad has bought so many oranges and has to cut, peel, and squeeze them everyday. I sent him this video and he found it hilarious. Thanks for bringing a smile to my dads face and keep up the great content! :)
