How do you eat this fruit called kiwi?
After more than 30 years using a small spoon, I changed. Now I’m eating the whole fruit including the skin.
I just bite into it like an apple.
People are often disgusted, which just makes it taste all the sweeter.
I, too, eat kiwis this way.
There’s at least 3 of us!
4, brothers
5 of us! Hello fellow enlightenment humans!
4, at minimum
I don’t think people of New Zealand will appreciate you biting them.
Wait, this isn’t how everyone else eats them?
Do it with a banana or a pineapple to really freak people out. Watermelons and pomegranates are also options.
Coconuts
Citrus, in particular grapefruit, would be also a good option to freak out people
Grapefruit and navel oranges aren’t that bad. The worst ones are thin leathery peels like mandarins
But how do you eat apples? I eat the whole thing, ass first, pit and all.
This is correct. Once you get to the top you can use the stem as a little handle too.

So, like a peach, huh? I’m half tempted to try this now.
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
Why is everyone eating the skin?
Get a load of this guy, peeling their apples, grapes and tomatoes.
Sure, but Kiwi fruit skins has hair …
Peeling apples is not nornal??
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.
Skin is edible just a little fuzzy
I’ll try eating it with skin next time then, thanks.
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.
I cut them in half and jam them into my mouth and use my teeth to scrape along the inside of the skin.
I do the same with rats
People mention eating it whole… I at least shave the hair off it first.
schick? venus?
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.
Spoon.
Yellow ones I eat skin and all.
Green ones get hollowed out with the thinnest teaspoon we have.
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.
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.
