How to eat a kiwifuit.
I was sitting here this morning eating a kiwi and thinking about how happy I was that I had seen how my friend Jeffrey eats kiwis. Before this I would have always tried to peel it (with a knife of course) - it was just too much trouble. I mentioned it to Chris - who is sitting behind me on the other computer - and he said, "now that is a blog post. Just think how many more people may be able to enjoy eating a kiwi."
Here's Jeffrey's recipe for success in eating a kiwi:
1. slice a bit off the top and the bottom
2. place the kiwi on a plate
3. use a spoon to dig in and enjoy
No peeling, no mess. Pure kiwi fruit enjoyment.
Have a great Sunday - and WOW on all the awesome challenge posts over the last couple of days. Love how you guys worked those stamps!
We eat the kiwis with a spoon, a mocha size spoon, much easier than peeling! Our favourite kiwi is the golden kiwi, so sweet and yummy!

I cut mine in half and eat each half by scooping out the fruit with a spoon. Works for me!

If you forgo the cutting of the bottom you can hold it in your hand and have a portable treat :)

Cool tip, thanks. It was a hoot chatting with you at Scrapper's Bliss the other night and oh, I have that same silverware pattern as well! Small world!

Save yourself a lot of time and just eat the peel! I was very sceptical when a girlfriend suggested this to me, but it's great. Cut it up and go for it!!

What a flashback! I worked in a Produce dept. of a grocery store for 14 years...they showed us once how to do this...yes it truly is much easier to eat them this way.

I cut mine in half too!
But if I am making a little fruit salad I peel the skin off with my potatoe peeler. It takes no time at all and I don't waste any kiwi fruit.

this makes me giggle! we have cut and scooped since I was a girl, is is THE best! and the kids love the little bowl approach too! thanks for making me smile ( and want to buy kiwis!) oh, and I do have to say that the red plate with the green of the kiwi and silver spoon makes that a darn cool photo :)

Thanks for the tip! My DD loves them, but they are such a pain to peel. Glad I've been educated on the proper way LOL

THANKS!! I was just thinking about this yesterday as I peeled a couple for my kids. I peel then dice and serve with a tooth pick. But this is much better. I will serve them this way tomorrow. Now I know the right way, THANKS!

When we buy our Kiwi fruit at the supermarket, they come with a little green spoon-knife!!
The little plastic knife part is to chop it in half and the little plastic spoon part is to scoop out the fruit :)

KIWIFRUIT!
Not Kiwi.... the Kiwi is our national bird, an icon and endangered! Come on Ali you've been to New Zealand - you should know this! Hee hee! KIWIFRUIT!!!!!

If you have a serrated grapefruit spoon, try that...it makes it even easier! Cut kiwifruit in half and scrape it all out! Anat
