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!
