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?

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.
