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.
With my mouth.
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.
I don’t think people of New Zealand will appreciate you biting them.
There’s at least 3 of us!
4, brothers
5 of us! Hello fellow enlightenment humans!
4, at minimum
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.
I realize this may make me sound like a psychopath, but I legitimately do eat my kiwi fruits like this.
I straight up bite into it unpeeled and am not bothered by the inconsequential fuzzy part because it’s immediately immersed in the delicious fruit pulp.
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.
Peeling apples is not nornal??
Sure, but Kiwi fruit skins has hair …
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
Yellow ones I eat skin and all.
Green ones get hollowed out with the thinnest teaspoon we have.
Spoon.
People mention eating it whole… I at least shave the hair off it first.
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.
schick? venus?
Honestly, it has a better mouth feel when they’re waxed.
Brush excess fuzz off with my hand, remove the ends and eat with skin on.
