Anyone ever have a baked potato explode? (kbin.social)

Idle question. I've always heard that you need to prick the skins before baking a potato. The potential consequence for failure to do so is a catastrophic potato explosion.

Has anyone had this happen to them?

Same here! Last night I was stabbing a couple out of habit and felt like the question needed to be asked.

Never stabbed one potato in all that time.

...Perhaps they don't explode in Australia? Or it could be a microwave thing. I don't have a microwave.
