You've obviously never met my brother. I've watched him mechanically devour 15 seedless tangerines in a matter of minutes. He peeled and put the entire fruit into his mouth and while chewing the first one began peeling the next unfortunate victim. He does this often and it goes without saying, that we never had to convince him to eat his fruits and veggies. Just leave them in his general vicinity and he'll disappear them for you without complaint.
