To eat an orange, begin by washing the fruit to remove any surface bacteria or dirt. Next, locate the natural seam of the orange, which is a thin line that runs from the stem end to the blossom end. Place your thumbs on either side of the seam and apply gentle pressure to separate the orange into two halves.
Once the orange is halved, you can use a spoon to scoop out the juicy segments. Alternatively, you can peel the orange with a sharp knife and then slice the segments into bite-sized pieces. Oranges can be eaten fresh, juiced, or used as an ingredient in various recipes.
