Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

I mean technically you're supposed to be able to eat the brown fuzzy skin on kiwis but I'm not going to be doing that
You're missing out! Kiwis are great to eat whole. Way less messy as well (no need to dirty a knife or a spoon to eat them). Plus as an added bonus you get to freak out people who don't know that you can eat the skin!
I once ate a whole kiwi in front of my wife. That's the closest we ever came to getting a divorce.
She stayed with you even though you're a cannibal - that's the kind of devotion you rarely see any more these days.
That must be one rock solid relationship.
Another plus, it contains a lot of nutrition value of the fruit. But the kiwi should be of better quality as everything used on the growing field can also potentially be found in the skin.
Also, slices of kiwi, including skin, are perfect on a pizza margherita. My go to pizza if I have some kiwis left.
Yeah I'm with ya! I'll continue to lick all those brown fuzzy fibers off the fruit and proceed to cough it all up like a hairball before eating like GOD intended!
One of my best friends swears by eating the skin. Haven't tried, I'm scared. Lol
I eat it.. honestly, it is delicious. Slightly bitter and sour whilst adding some nice texture.
I'll have to give it a shot
See if you can get some golden kiwis, then they don't even have hairs on the skin
Main reason I don't eat it is that it's unclear to me what else am I eating with the hairy skin of kiwi. It's not that easy to clean as let's say apple. And in random cases it causes peoeple to get mouth ulcers.
I started suffering mouth ulcers shortly after independently discovering that the kiwi skin is edible. It took some time to figure out what the cause was, because the sores would develop days after eating them.
