    I cut open an orange and there's these small brown-black yokes inside.

    Are they dead worms or what?

    They're Pipworms. Don't eat it, they'll start living inside you and eventually take your body over.:(

    It's where the old expression "That gave me the pips" comes from.

    These are worse than pipworms- they're actually Orangicus Umpalumpacus or OU worms for short- one segment OP and you'll turn into an umpalumpa :eek:

    Unless it's a hidden safe inside that orange, we're just not interested.
