            I was just wondering... 
Because for most of my life, I would pick out the ginger from foods and set them aside to throw away. Much like what I do whenever I see tomato seeds or whole peppercorns. 
But recently, I've just been eating them.  I guess I got lazy picking them out.
 I guess I got lazy picking them out.  And besides, I can eat them when they are thinly sliced so... why not eat them when they are more thickly sliced? I find I can eat them anyway. Though I think I will continue picking out the peppercorns (and of course, the tomato seeds.)

                    No, ginger always feels like it's biting me. I don't like it in anything I eat. Luckily, I do most of the cooking so I don't have to pick it out of my food. (I don't use peppercorns, either, but I use a lot of tomatoes in my cooking. )

                            @DaddyEvil whereas I like eating raw ginger. We dont use them in cooking but we put them in the tea as it's good for health.

                    I usually eat the ginger in our lugaw because it is chopped finely but if they are thick slice I won't eat them

                    Yes, ginger is very healthy. I use and eat them for steamed fish and chicken. Here, women who just gave birth to a baby eat pig’s feet with sweet vinegar and ginger.

                    I usually add ginger paste to my food and sometimes add ginger shreds or slices. I eat the shreds but put away the slices.

                    Ginger can be a helpful and natural remedy to ease that upset stomach such as bloating, cramping, and gas.I find them very helpful in this type of situation which I get a lot.I like having them in ginger chicken and ginger bread cookies.

                    When it is thinly sliced, it's okay mixed with my food. 
I do crush and boil them in water to extract the juice for drinking when having throat problems, and so far, it has been very effective in treating my symptoms.
I found out, it has many health benefits, so try to include them in my diet.
