Whoa, I never heard of the rolling bit, that's genius. I've always cut them first. Seriously gotta try that one. Thanks!

Using a fork on the inside of both halves as a reamer helps as well.

you can take it to the supermarket and try to trade it in for a bottle of juice, preferably before you microwave it, roll it, and cut it.
