Is it possible to eat a kiwi’s fuzzy skin?

Kiwi fruit is delicious, sweet, and tangy, with a soft, green texture. That hairy brown skin, on the other hand, is a different story. When you eat kiwi with the skin on, the fruit is even more nutrient-dense. When compared to eating just the flesh, eating the skin can triple your fiber intake.

How does a ripe kiwi appear?

To see if a kiwi is ripe, gently press it with your thumb; if it yields to gentle pressure, it’s ripe. Kiwis can be scooped, sliced, or even eaten whole, with the skin still on.
