Okay in the fact that it's safe but not morally okay. If I see you eating a kiwi with the skin on I am never talking to you again.

Nah, disagree. While the skin isn't exactly my favorite part, the amount of work it takes to peel a kiwi is not worth the minor inconvenience of just eating the skin. It's not particularly hard to skin a kiwi, either, but it's just not worth it when the skin is edible, good for you, and quite tasty. It's just the texture that sucks. It's like someone shaved their balls 8 days ago and you're getting teabagged.

Okay but you just cut it in half and eat it with a spoon though. You don't need to peel it.

You don’t even need to do that, bite it open like an orange (obviously not eating the skin, we’re civilized after all) and then just push it open, eat the insides like a goblin and throw the skin away.

Easy.

I... I don't think I'd be able to ever look someone in the eye again if I saw them eating any fruit like that.
And then I noticed your user name and realized that you are probably that bunny from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, so direct eye contact is probably not a good idea anyways...

Are you for real? I bet we all look the same to you. That was a rabbit.

Too much work. In fairness, I'm mostly driving if I'm eating something like a kiwi, so my perspective is a little different

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Okay but then your hands get all sticky. Even worse of an argument

Opt out.

I, too, prefer freshly shorn testicles if I'm gargling nards, but I'll take what I can get these days

Are you on the "eating the banana skin" team as well ?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That is less bad than the fuzzy kiwi skin

I imagine it's how a tarantula would feel in my mouth.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

But it is the only way to eat them!
