[b]You may think how many possible ways are there to eat an apple. Well there are quite a few. You could eat it just like it is...skin and all or peal the skin or cut in half and dip it in yogurt, carmeal, or peanut butter. I think you get the hint. So let me know how you like to eat your apple! When I was a little girl my grandpa use to use his pocket knife *cleaned it of course* and pealed the skin and eat the apple while I ate the skin![/b]

When I eat my apple I sometimes just eat it whole with the peeling on it. Other times I will cut it in hal;f so it is much easier for me to sink my teeth into it. My daughter likes the caramel apples, I do not, I do love candied apples though..

Wuh! your very unique coz you like to eat the skin hehehe. I haven't heard it before just only now. You have a very different taste. I guess we all had our unique way in things lol.... Well personally i like to eat apples when it is pealed. I don't like the skin really,I think it ruins the smooth juicy sweet taste inside so it's better if it's pealed so i can just chew it very easy and i will enjoy it very much. Especially if it is chilled i really like it because it is very juicy.

I agree that the shin of the apple is an acquired taste but that is where the most vitamins are. I leave the skins on mt potatoes when I make mashed potatoes too.

I love apples! Red, yellow, green, it doesn't matter. But I always eat them the same. Wash it off and bite right in. The only thing that doesn;t get eaten is the seeds and the stem. Now my kids like them cut up. When they were younger they wanted them skinned and cut up but now they just eat them in a few wedges. Another way they love to eat apples is with peanut butter.Now I have to go get an apple. I'm hungry for one! :)

I like to peel the apple and then cut it into four,then I also take the core out,and then I just have apple and none of the waste parts,and often I will dip the apple into my yoghurt,but my sister she eats the whole thing,the stem,the core and the skin,with her there is no waste,the apple is nowhere to be seen when she has been at it

I clean the apple and cut them in wedges, taking out the seeds. when I have some chocolate bars at home, I melt them and dip the apple pieces so it goes ala fondue. I also love eating the apple with the skin, makes it crunchier.

I slice it really thinly and remove the peel. Then I take a bite and enjoy every last slice. I do not like eating the skin though.

I don't like biting into an apple because it hurts my gums. So when I eat an apple I usually cut it into wedges first. On the rare ocassion that we have carmel in the house I'd have it with the apple.

Hello,Aman!I like to eat the apple every day as it is good for health.usually I peel the skin of the apple.there is reason behind peeling.I had read in some journal a few years back that while peeling the skin of the apple with a knife the back portions of the brain gets activated.since then I have been peeling the skin of the apple.moreover,if you peel the skin there will be no fear of eating poisonous things.So I peel,make small pieces of it and spray a little mineral smelling salt and black pepper powder and eat.this way you can make it more delicious.thanx.

I usually slice it and eat it skin and all, but sometimes I bake them and serve them as a desert. I haven't made that in a long time but may just have to make it this week now that you reminded me. Thanks

Well I use to eat my apple with the peal off when i was younger, but now that i know that the most important part of the apple is the pealing this is the reason why now that I eat the peal because of all the great fiber.

I think I eat my apples more efficiently when they are cut up into pieces. I never end up eating the whole apple if I eat it "as is."

It's easier because then they feel like finger food instead of a whole hand food lol if that even makes since!

I like apples myself. Some of the ideas you brought to mind are really good ones. I myself like caramel and I have had peanut butter on my apples which was introduced to me when I was a small child. Apples are very good for you too. I think they are better when the skin is sliced. They are just more enjoyable that way.

They are easier to eat when they are pealed and they don't get stuck in your teeth
