Poll: Kiwi fruit - skin on or off (poll please?)

[hartgeh3]

Googled....

Although the skin is technically edible, some individuals dislike its fuzzy feel. According to several researchers, kiwi skin is safe to consume and contains loads of vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants. The peel of kiwi is entirely edible and contains no toxic chemicals.

Yeah, no thanks! SKIN OFF!!

Cut it in half, spoon in at the edge, twist it around to scoop it out.

Done.

Ditto

I’ve always cut mine in half as well and used a spoon to scoop it out.

Peeling it, lol, what a waste of time. And people eating the skin, monsters.

Kiwi skin packs an antioxidant-filled punch: It has three times more antioxidants than the fruit itself! Antioxidants help your body fight free radicals, unstable molecules in your body that, if left unchecked, can lead to cellular damage and cause signs of aging and disease

Guess how I voted

Still no spooning option...

Do you strange folk eat pinapple whole as well? Melon?

I'm curious what other fruits the OP eats with it's skin on. Bananas... Coconuts...

I astonished at how many folks don’t eat the skin. I always thought that was the way kiwi fruit were meant to be eaten much like tomatoes or apples

I've not see many hairy tomatoes or apples with thick skin.

Brb eating a whole orange.

Brb eating a whole orange.

That almost made me spit out the whole Jackfruit I'm eating.

Isn't the kiwi skin really chewy?

 

[Bluecube]

Nope. Nor is it thick

 

[GarethSouthgate]

Nope. Nor is it thick

I'm going to try eating some skin. Will report back.

 

[Bluecube]

Don’t eat the skin separately! Just eat the fruit as you’d eat an apple

 

[jaybee]

I didn't know this was even a thing, eating the skin of a Kiwi. Are you some kind of animal? (please provide pics so we can judge)

 

[PishY]

Skin off for me! Couldn’t eat the skin

 

[dlockers]

I knew an outrageously hot chick who would eat them skin on. It was such a weird experience and an unfortunate kink to develop due to lack of available content

 

[PaulM]

I didn't even know the skin was safe to eat, you learn something new every day!

 

[dlockers]
