A woman who eats her kiwifruit in a unique way says she has been called out by a friend mocking her technique.
The fruit offender shared a photo of a gold kiwifruit which she has taken bites out of without peeling it first.
She explained on Reddit’s ‘Mildly Infuriating’ thread: “My friends say the way I eat kiwis makes them angry.”

“I personally think this is the most scrumptious way,” she added.
Kiwifruits are currently in season and Redditers were quick to join this woman’s friend in questioning her eatiny style.
Popular techniques avoid the skin, including cutting the kiwifruit in half and eating it with a spoon.

Others remove the skin entirely before cutting it up to consumer.
“You eat the skin?” one asked, prompting fellow kiwifruit-skin-eaters to join the conversation.
“I do it too, and everyone thinks I’m crazy. I love the texture, and the extra sour flavour,” another said.
Although eating the skin clearly isn’t for everyone.
“I ate a kiwi with the skin on a few months ago and my lips swelled up leaving me looking like a cod,” one said.
“I only just recently discovered you could eat kiwis with the skin on and I’m fascinated,” added another.
“Ignore the haters, kiwi skin is the caviar of plants. Turns it into a big kumquat!” another said.

One Redditer pointed out the skin of a gold kiwi is more pleasant to eat than the green variety.
“It’s a golden kiwifruit. They’re less hairy and sweeter than green kiwi fruit,” one said.
Another defended the choice by making a comparison.
“People eat the skins of peaches too, but either way I think that’s a golden kiwi in the picture (lighting makes it kind of hard to tell for me) and they tend to have less fuzz,” they said
Others insisted eating kiwifruit with the skin is just “wrong” to which the original poster said: “No wrong way to eat as long as it feels good.”
“Wait, YOU CAN EAT THE SKIN??? I always thought it was poisonous,” another said.
To suggestions she reconsider her friendship having been questioned about how she eats kiwifruit, she concluded: “Only on reddit someone would suggest you, to get new friends because of a kiwi.”
