Question

Can I do this but use a different food?

Community Answer

No. The most commonly known vegetable is a carrot, they're the easiest to identify among all other foods, so the go-to vegetable is the carrot. However, if you ask them to name a tool, they'll usually say hammer.

Question

My sister said orange. Is that normal?

Community Answer

An orange isn't a vegetable, so you should try to do the trick again. If she continues to say orange, then the 3rd time write orange and it'll work

Question

How do I make someone say a word?

Community Answer

You can go the simple route and just ask them to say it, or you can try to trick them by asking a question with the word as the only possible answer.

Question

What if there is someone in the audience who questions my trick?

Community Answer

Pretend that you are a mastermind and that all of this can be explained by science or psychology of some sort. Prepare a story ahead of time.

Question

What if my "victim" says broccoli, the other common vegetable?

ILikeSlugs

Community Answer

In that case, (s)he probably can't count correctly because "broccoli" has eight letters in it, and "carrot" has six.
