Do you eat potato skins?

I like to leave the skin on my potatoes when I am cooking them. I have been told that the vitamins are in the skin plus they taste great. I love baked potatoes with sour cream and butter. Sometimes I go all out and add cheese and bacon bits too.

I love baked potatos too and eat the about once a week. I love all those toppings but sometimes I put A-1 sauce on it. Another thing that I like to put on them is Italian salad dressing, MMMMMMMMMM

I don't eat potato skins. Whenever I have a baked potato I eat all of the inside. I only add salt , no ketchup or sour cream.

It's been a long time since I've eaten a baked potato and it's usually the whole thing that I gobble down, don't like to waste it LOL

I just love the potato skins that you buy in the store. I believe that the Friday's Resturant makes them. They are really good. I have had a lot of people's home made baked potato. I was not able to eat the skin, because most people do not clean the skin of the potato properly. It takes a little more elbow grease than just running them under water.

I sometimes like the skin. I usually perfer them off the potato but I guess it depends on what im eating at that time. I rarely eat baked potatoes tho. Its usually mashed or fried. Or scalped.

I love baked potatoes and I also ove the skins , even when we boil them to go with meat I leave the skins on , xx

I LOVE potato skins! in fact I made some last night for my daughter and I and they were so good I am making more right now for myself for dinner (which is much later than I'd planned unfortunately...I might have to only nibble on one or two then save the rest for tomorrows lunch :-( )

No we don't use pototo skin as it is got some soil on it. we peel off the skin after boiling it.

I love baked potatoes and do eat the skins. One of the things I do is right before I'm ready to eat, I split the potato in half, and add a slice of American Cheese and sprinkle some chives on it, then put it back in the oven so the cheese melts a bit...yum!

I also love baked potato. I do eat the skin of mine if it is tender and not over done and tough. I also like mashed potatoes with the skin, we use the small potatoes, either red or brown and cook them with their skin and those are good.

Oh you're making me sooo hungry!! lol I LOVE the baked potato & fried potato WITH the skin and all! Yummy to the tummy! Did you know the skin is the best nutritional part? Not many people know that and to me it makes it all the better tasting! I like mine with sour cream and butter and lots of it!

Well, I guess I'm weird. Or at least my family thinks I'm weird. I'm always the only one at the dinner table to not eat the skin when we have baked potatoes. I put everything but the kitchen sink in mine and then carefully seperate the potato from the skin and stir it around really good and then I only eat the inside. However, when I make mashed potatoes, I always include the skins. I love them in mashed potatoes! Go figure. LOL

I don't love the skins, but I usually eat them anyway. If they are tough or burned, then I'll just eat the inside of the potato. When I make them for myself, I always leave the skin on just because it's easier.

For me it depends on how the potato was baked whether or not I eat the skin. If they are crispy and have flavor I like them. I like to put broccoli and cheese sauce on them as well as the usual butter, sour cream and chives. I have gotten away from peeling potatoes for frying and only partially peel them for mashing. It has gotten very hard with my hands being cripples. I love potatoes but they really aren't good for me, but I eat them any way sometimes.

I always eat the skin, that is the healthiest part of the potato.

If it's a good potato I like to eat the skin as they taste good and have lots of nutrients, apparently most of the nutrients in a potato are in the skin. I have to buy cheap potato's though and often the skins are blighted or don't look very attractive so I usually end up leaving them when I have a baked potato or peeling them off when I cook the potato's in other ways.

I wish my baked potato was all skins. I love the skins the best, to me thats the only part that really has any taste. I like my baked potatoes like Wendy's has them with brocolli and melted cheese the best. MMM, yummy topic. Take care

Hi ctrymuziklvr, No, I never eat potatoe skins. Sometimes we bake them, but I just scoop them out. Blessings.

I eat the potato skins when I bake my potatoes. I make sure to wash them good and cut off any part that is a little bad. I also eat them when I make fries in the deep fryer and when I make pan fries. But I don't eat them when I make boiled potatoes or when I make potato pancakes, or when I make mashed potatoes. I leave the skins on when I boil potatoes for potato salad but I skin them after they are boiled. I hear that the most nutrient are in the peel, although that's not why I leave them on sometimes. I don't leave them on, either, because it is easier, as in less work. I just leave them on at times, because I prefer them that way.
