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?

    In the oven, really hot and it blew open and “baked” all over the inside. Hell to clean up. I was sure I poked it, but… couldn’t remember.
    Now I go all serial killer on them before baking.
