The slimy stuff sticking to your hands when you carve a jack-o'-lantern — pumpkin pulp! It turns out it works on the same principle as the white fluff inside a diaper.
π Case closed
- Pumpkin pulp = the "natural reservoir," a cellulose fiber mesh trapping water through capillary action
- Diaper fluff pulp = the "processed courier," fluffed-up softwood fibers carrying liquid with the same capillary action
- Same principle, opposite designs — the pumpkin stores, the diaper transports!
π Practical tip
The cleaner you scrape the inside, the longer your jack-o'-lantern lasts. Leftover pulp is a breeding ground for rot, so scrape thoroughly.
