How many of ya'll eat fruit peel?

I peeled an orange at lunch and I thought... why not just wash it and eat it like an apple? I eat kumquats with the peel on em.

Bananna?

The closest thing I've come to that is grated lemon peel in blueberry soup. *drool*

I tend to peel the usual suspects like bananas and oranges and eat things like grapes and strawberries without stems and leaves, but otherwise intact.

I actually took a bite out of an orange once without peeling it first. It was horrible. Same goes with bananas. They peel those things for a reason.

They crystallise Mandarin peel as a delicacy in china. I eat kiwifruit (chinese goosberries) with their skin on, but banana's are too fibrous.

I avoid foreign delicacies as a rule.

So do I; a kumquat doesn't have as much pith as an orange.
But orange peel and pith are edible, so if you can stomach them, go for it.
I'll keep peeling mine.

Lately my Golden has been taking care of peels and apple cores, and even peanut husks. He can't get enough of that stuff.
