Wall – a little over the back of the head arm action
You don’t need to do either anymore. They have cheaped out of providing a core to hold it all together any more.
Back in the day though, knee.
Table
Kitchen counter top
I prefer to deliver a fast bowl to some of the kids playing cricket on the green in the hope that one of them will break the lamellar chocolate armour underneath that foil.
Head, followed by immediate regret
Just bite into it like an apple.
Forehead. Trust me once you’ve tried it you won’t go back.
My brother’s head for all the Christmas times he hit me with one.
Sister’s head. Why break tradition?
We’ve got a stone fireplace, so that.
Tile floor – first whack never disappoints.
Forehead.
It has had absolubulubulubetly no affefefect.
ceiling. just full belt it upwards and when you catch it you can eat it straight away.
Sibling.
Something that won’t make much noise – tiled floor is your best bet
Get a load of this fancy redditor. Must be from the SE. Everywhere else in the country we smash them off our heads.
The head every time.
Preferably a siblings.
Eat it like an apple
I thought you meant should you have it as wall art or a rug design on the floor, and to be honest, I’m considering both.
Floor from the top of the stairs
I once threw one across the garden. It hit a concrete path and burst open, throwing chocolate into the grass. Not all of it was recovered.
Counter top corner
Edge of a big solid table is what I use.
Table!
middle finger knuckle, a nice quick jab will split it perfectly. plus you can feel like bruce lee when you get it first try.
Extra large walnut cracker
I use a knife to individually pry apart each wedge.
Let the orange hit the floor…
The last few Christmases ive had these there’s been no need to ‘break’ them anymore. They just come apart with minimal effort.
Not sure if its structural or maybe just cheaper ingredients/more vegetable oil or something.
Fresh out the fridge, oak furniture land dinning table.
Kitchen surface
Knee or forehead?
Bin
Surprised I’ve yet to see a fellow kneecapper.
Wall. Always wall.
Or the corner of a table.
I once watched an elderly relative take the ‘tap it and unwrap it’s too literally. Just a small tap of the finger and she tried to open it. We had to tell her to whack it on the floor.
One of my five a day !
Bang it on the side of a wooden table.
Knee…
Throw it at my brothers head
Skull
Usually do kick ups with them. Great exercise but takes about 19 hours.
Hammer and nail
Kitchen counter corner
Just roll it on the table with a fair bit of pressure. Breaks up wonderfully with no risk to your furniture / wall / sister’s forehead.
Squeeze it between my palms and twist!
I now use the Bob Mortimer apple splitting method, it is transferable to oranges of the chocolate variety, however a bit messy on normal oranges
Does seriously noone just use their hands? You just pull it apart…
Fucking hell mate, I’ve never even thought about this and now it’s a dilemma
