I too eat kiwis with skin, but apparently stranger is that I eat the whole apple, starting from the bottom working up, core and all.

It's self-evident. I'm not attracted to people without skin, regardless of nationality.

Relax, he's not talking about Kiwi people, he means the bird

Apple seeds contain cyanide and amygdalin.

Depends on what you're trying to achieve

I started eating whole apples after I met someone who does. He said: "Why not? I don't have to throw away the core then!".

Ever since then I ate the whole thing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Absolutely disgusting. You're supposed to go top to bottom!

[–] agamemnonymous 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Wrong. Bottom to top you get the stem to better hold the last couple bites.

Might start trying this.

i had one of those apple corer things you press down to cut an apple into slices and leave behind the core in a cylinder.

used it one day at work and started feeling more and more nauseated and dizzy right after eating the apple slices to the point i had to leave work and go home.

i googled it later and discovered apple seeds contain a small amount of cyanide. i guess normally if you don't chew them they pass through just fine no problem. but that apple corer thing had sliced through several seeds.

i've chewed a seed or two before without issues so maybe i got some mutant apple or something but fyi about the cyanide thing!
