10 Foods That People Eat the “Wrong Way”

Bananas: Peeling bananas from the stem end is common, but some find it easier to open them from the bottom, as monkeys do.

Pineapples: Many people discard the core of a pineapple, but it's edible and nutritious when sliced thinly.

Artichokes: Eating only the leaves and discarding the heart is common, but the heart is the most tender and flavorful part

Mangoes: Some people struggle with cutting mangoes, but slicing the flesh off each side and then scoring it in a grid pattern makes it easier to eat.

Kiwis: Peeling kiwis with a knife or peeler is common, but cutting them in half and scooping out the flesh with a spoon.

Oranges: Peeling oranges in the traditional way can be messy, but cutting off the top and bottom and then slicing the peel along the sides makes for cleaner eating.

Cupcakes: Some people eat cupcakes by biting into the top, but removing the bottom half, placing it on top, and eating it like a sandwich.

Burgers: Instead of stacking toppings on top of the burger patty, placing them between the two halves of the bun can prevent the burger from becoming too messy.
