Pipas

There is a knack to eating Pipas, that traditional Spanish snack.

You pop it in your mouth, crack open the shell, scoop out the pip with your tongue, spit out the shell (health implications will be covered later), then chomp said pip, all in one fluid movement!

Why discuss this not too interesting subject? Simple, I just cannot get the hang of it which makes me stand out in a crowd. Also spitting the shell out onto the road, bus, tram, bar or while watching the Fiesta makes me feel as if I am commiting major some offence, a litter lout so to speak.
