I like coconuts, but I can't figure out how to eat these suckers. It mainly depends on what tools I have available. I drill first to get the delicious juice to make drinks but then it gets messy.

Either a hammer or gravity does most of the damage.

And now I have shards of coconut with husk and all.

Spoons no good.
Knifes... kinda good until you almost hack of a finger... (it hurts a lot right now)

So how do you eat coconuts?

The easiest way is to hold the coconut in your hand and take the back side of a sizable meat cleaver to it. It should crack, then you just have to hit it at the end of the crack until you end up with two or three pieces.

If you do it over a large bowl, you can skip the drilling expedition for the juice as it will collect in the bowl.

There's a somewhat easy way to crack a coconut. You just have to know where to hit.

I think the way to do so is explained well at the aptly named http://www.howtoopenacoconut.com/.

Me? I generally just pull open the plastic bag.

I stretch my cardiac stomach over it and digest it externally.














Oh, wait. That was last night when I dreamt I was part-starfish. :confused:
