Do you peel the apple?

Hello youless!:-) It's been ages that I have peeled an apple to eat it. I eat it with its skin on and I don't usually cut it either. When, however, my partner was around, she sometimes used to peel the skin for us to eat. Then when she used to make fruit desserts, salad or something of that sort, she used to peel it. After her, I never did anything of that sort!

I had once started a discussion on fruits and the responses gave me many insights. I used to peel my apples but after reading that there is much goodness contained just beneath the skill, I no longer peel them UNLESS they are WAXY which to me, feels poisonous if I eat it.

i prefer not to peel of apple skin. don't you know that apple skin is rich with antioxidant? so why i shoud peel it? in fact having skin of apple more delicious to eat. just for tips, if you are afraid there is kind of wax arround the apple skin (its used to make apple looks shinny and attractive), then soak your apples in warm water about 5 or 10 minutes. after dry it, you can eat your apples directly or put into your refrigenerator to cool it down :)

I have never peeled the apple. But in my childhood i have heard my mother used to feed me apple peeled. ASfter taht i have never peeled an apple.

i never peeled the apple..i like to eat with skin and besides skin has lots of vitamins

I tend to eat the peel as well. I know some people are concerned about fertilisers or pesticides, so I do tend to wash my apples thoroughly first. The other option is to buy organic, or if you are fortunate enough to have a big enough garden, grow your own! My favourite variety is Pink Lady, as it is so sweet.

Apple skin and onions are the two major food sources of a potent flavonoid called quercitin.Researchers have identified a dozen compounds -- triterpenoids -- in apple peel that either inhibit or kill cancer cells in laboratory cultures. Wil I ever peel the apple and eat?

Unfortunately I have to peel the apples I get here because if I eat the skin, it makes my tongue itch.So whenever I have apples these days they are peeled and sliced and baked in a pie.

my used to say when i was still a kid that the skin of the apple is nutricious too so we dont peel it. sometimes it is not easy to eat it with the skin but i got used to it already. now my kids does not peel the apple too just wash it very well and eat it

I love eating the skin too youless. My son doesn't and likes it peeled. I think he has just gotten use to it since he 2-3 yrs.

I do not peel it unless I am serving the apple to someone under 5 years! I do slice it or I bake it to soften it and bring out the sweetness! I have even baked apple pies with the skin still on, and made applesauce with the skin on! It has a few extra vitamins that way!

Fruits with edible skins are much more healthier than without the skins.. hehe.. ANd so, i always eat apples and pears together with the skins ^_^

i eat it period i dont peel it , plus i thought apple skin was good for you ? like it suppose to give your great sight or goo skin or something like that ?

I am used to peel the apples when I eat them.Because I think it tastes better without the apple skin and I'm lazy to wash them.

I don't peel apple specially if I'll be the one to eat it. I enjoy the apple with it's skin. Apple's skin has vitamins to get from, this is one of the reason why I enjoy it. It can make our skin younger and fresh.

peeling is not good for apples, you feel better now

I only peel my apples when the skin is a bit thick and hard to bite. Otherwise, I eat it as is. It's nice to eat apple with the skins, because it provides additional crunch to the fruit, and yes, it is the most nutritious part.

i don't peel apple, i just slice them and i love eating apples with their apple skins, i don't know why though lol

No, I hardly peel it. I am sometimes tempted to peel them if they have bruises on it.

hi youless, never ever i peel it oof..Like you, I also think an apple would taste best when it's eaten as it is - well, of course with a little washing. I am not sure about this but I've heard most of an apple's - or any other fruit's - most nutrition are located near it's 'skin' so I guess it's really best to eat your apple with the skin... also it is too much of work
