Item Overview
Orange slices are a consumable item in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) that provide players with a refreshing burst of health and energy. These slices are derived from oranges, which players can obtain through various means, primarily from the farming skill or by purchasing from certain shops.
How to Obtain Orange Slices
There are several ways players can acquire orange slices in OSRS:
- Farming: Players can grow oranges by planting orange tree seeds in a fruit tree patch. The tree takes a few hours to mature and will yield oranges, which can be sliced.
- Shops: Certain shops, like the food shops in Lumbridge and Varrock, sell whole oranges that can be sliced into orange slices.
- Monster Drops: Some monsters drop oranges, which can then be sliced for consumption.
- Events: Occasionally, during seasonal events, players might receive orange slices as rewards.

Benefits of Consuming Orange Slices
Orange slices are a popular choice among players for several reasons:
- Quick Healing: Each slice restores 2 hitpoints, making it useful in both PvE and PvP situations.
- Low Cost: Being easy to obtain, they are a budget-friendly option for healing.
- Convenience: Since they can be sliced from whole oranges, they are a great option for players who engage in farming.
Usage in Quests
Orange slices can play a role in various quests and activities within OSRS:
- The Dig Site: Players may need to consume orange slices as part of the requirements for certain tasks.
- Recipe for Disaster: Orange slices can be used in some of the cooking requirements in this quest.
- Other Quests: They are sometimes mentioned in other quests where food is a theme or integral to the plot.
Cooking with Orange Slices
While orange slices themselves are a food item, they can also be used creatively in cooking:
- Fruit Salads: Combine orange slices with other fruits to create a fruit salad, which restores more hitpoints.
- Juices: Players can experiment with crafting juices, though this requires additional ingredients and skills.
Common Misconceptions
Despite their popularity, there are a few common misconceptions about orange slices:
- Healing Amount: Some players think orange slices heal more than they actually do; they only heal 2 hitpoints per slice.
- Stackability: New players often believe that orange slices can be stacked, but this is not the case.
- Members Only: Orange slices are available to all players, not just members.
Trading and Market Value
The market value of orange slices can fluctuate based on supply and demand:
- Current Prices: Check the Grand Exchange for the latest prices, as they can change frequently.
- Buying in Bulk: Players looking to buy or sell in bulk can often negotiate better prices.
