Ask Lemmy

I just bite into it like an apple.

People are often disgusted, which just makes it taste all the sweeter.

I'm weird. I cut the skin off, eat the flesh, then eat the skin. There's just a different texture between the two and I like to experience them individually.

Why is everyone eating the skin?

I lick mine for several weeks until I get to the centre.

I cut it in half and kind of gnaw the innards out. I don't eat the skin, too fuzzy. I think some of modern kiwifruit have smoother skins, but I've been eating them since they were called Chinese gooseberries and to me they're forever fuzzy.

Is the skin even edible? I hate peeling that, which is why I use a spoon.

I cut them in half and jam them into my mouth and use my teeth to scrape along the inside of the skin.

Yellow ones I eat skin and all.

Green ones get hollowed out with the thinnest teaspoon we have.

People mention eating it whole... I at least shave the hair off it first.

Spoon.

Brush excess fuzz off with my hand, remove the ends and eat with skin on.

I cut both ends and slice it while keeping the skin on.

I just put them in my mouth and start chewing.

I like the fuzz and the sourness.

Use a knife to cut off the ends, then to slice away the skin. Finally, cut it into quarters and eat it.

Cut off both ends, slice in half, eat skin-on.

I wish I could be so unfettered

Eat the whole thing. The skin is sour but in a good way, and has most of the nutrients.

Peel, slice, eat with a fork. I know that the skin is edible, I just don't like the texture.

I suet to scoop aswell but now eat the whole thing. Started doing it after seeing a coworker do it. They said you don't notice it and gave me one of thiers. I tried it that way, and they were right. I didn't notice it.

Don't like the fuzziness of the skin, but I know you can eat it all.

Same as some people peel apples and some don't. Eat it how you want and don't worry what others do/think.

I take the skin off with a potato peeler and then slice it.

I remove the sticker, wash it under the tap and one bite at a time, eat it whole.

I peel it and then eat it

you can also cut it in half and scoop it out if you like

Eat it whole. People who see me eat kiwis think I'm messing with them. I've never know different
