You've set up a straw man with your analogy:
You could eat an orange the same way as an apple… if you're a man.
You have the same arguments for all the parts:
apple core = orange peel = biodegradeable
or
apple core = orange peel = edible, though not very tasty.
But I will give you one argument:
oranges will be more juicy than apples, thus more sticky.

Jon…that's our prime 'enforcement' method in our gangster society down here…we wrap victums in bacon, deep fry them, then force them to eat oranges.

Real men don't eat fruit, unless wrapped in bacon and deep fried.

Traten otros del gobierno

del mundo y sus monarquías,

mientras gobiernan mis días

mantequillas y pan tierno,

y las mañanas de invierno

naranjada y aguardiente.

y ríase la gente.

@Pete C: real men eat kiwifruit skin and all, especially the golden variety. They're our apples! Youcan always spit out the furry bits!

Pete C…don't mess with our National fruit. They're fresh when they leave here and taste nothing like cardboard…are you sure you're eating the fruit and not the cartons we pack them in?

I believe the "Orange Bitches" may have to do with female guidos. Just a thought.

I would like to add Kiwi fruits, if you want it in a fruit salad you have to peel it and slice it all the while getting juice everywhere, if you just want to eat it, you have to slice the top off and eat it like an egg! So who the hell carries a spoon and a knife around with them (apart from you gansgters out there).

(and it tastes like reconstituted cardboard!)

Reminds me of grapefruits too. So much work for little return. On top of all the work with oranges, you get sticky fingers and orange juice all over the place.

Me again: I take it you have met a few of these 'orange btiches'.
