I just bite into it like an apple.

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

Do it with a banana or a pineapple to really freak people out. Watermelons and pomegranates are also options.

Citrus, in particular grapefruit, would be also a good option to freak out people

But how do you eat apples? I eat the whole thing, ass first, pit and all.

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.

I will try this once, just because of this thread.

But until then, I disagree and you're a monster

Get a load of this guy, peeling their apples, grapes and tomatoes.

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.

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

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

You can also rub the hairs off first, on your pants or whatever. The hairs are not terrible, but I'm not a huge fan.

Aa!

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

Honestly, it has a better mouth feel when they're waxed.

I usually rinse them. The spines relax enough when wet.

Alternatively there's the golden kiwis which have skin that remind me of pears, just thicker. They don't have spines. I'd still to prefer to rinse them, but more because you should rinse fruits and veggies if you're going to eat the skin.

Yellow ones I eat skin and all.

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

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

This, but sometimes I’ll roll a slice out of its skin as I eat it, like pulling the ripcord on a gyroscope. Then I’ll eat the strip of skin on its own. Only a monster licks the cream out of an Oreo and leaves the biscuit behind.

2

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

5

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

3

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

3

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.

3

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.

3

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

2

I peel it and then eat it

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

I pressed ctrl + F, typed in "wash", and your comment was the only mention. Are people forgetting to wash fruit or forgetting to say they wash fruit?

We're all gonna die one day and we're all full of micro plastic already anyway. Grab life by the hairy, pesticide soaked skin and sink your teeth in.

1

Rarely, but when I do: cutting in half, then eating it with a spoon. I never knew people did it other ways too.

1

Whole fruit with the skin, it's better that way. Though I usually use a small knife to carve out the ends.

1

I'm allergic to the skin; it makes my mouth tingle. So, I eat it with a spoon.

1

I cut 'em in half, then scoop the flesh out with a spoon. I've tried biting through the skin, but I don't like the fuzz.
