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?

Been practicing cooking for pretty much thirty years. Many many baked potatoes, never had one explode.
Same here! Last night I was stabbing a couple out of habit and felt like the question needed to be asked.
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.
