Though it’s now making its rounds on TikTok, the orange shower trend has humbler Reddit beginnings dating back to 2015. The news discussion site’s r/ShowerOrange forum has 80,000 members who swear by the pleasure experienced when you eat an orange in the shower. And that’s all the trend is: peeling and eating an orange while showering, ideally in the morning.
Proponents say the combination of the orange aroma and shower steam invigorates your senses and leaves you feeling energized, motivated, and ready to take on your day.
Several TikTokkers and Redditors also note that it’s neater to eat an orange while showering since you’re continuously rinsing the sticky residue off your hands as you peel.
