How to eat a kiwifuit.
Tags: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!

Just another reason to look to you for inspiration...have always loved the kiwifruit....have sliced it and cut the skin off a layer at the time. Not unlike I do to paper and stamps sometimes...
So -- needless to say -- I will continue to read the blog -- who knows what other life changing things may come along!
Congrats to Chris btw....happy for you both.

Usually I cut the kiwi in half and hold the half in my hand and eat it with a tea spoon. Do you have also the yellow kiwi's in the USA? They taste even better (sweeter) than the green ones.
Thanks for sharing though! I thought everybody already knew how to eat a kiwi. I think you helped a lot of people.

yea, I did the same thing for so many years - tried to cut the kiwifruit... then our local grocery store had those plastic spoons some people above talked about....too funny how little things like this bring us together :) I took a picture of my cute kiwifruit spoons, my kids love 'em. Not sure if I linked correctly

Down under - we even have special knifey/spooney thingies for free when you buy your kiwi's - even glittery ones! one end is the knife and the other is a spoon - my girls LOVE them!

OMG this is hilarious! I didn't know there was any other way. But my kids have this metal gerber baby spoon that is the absolute perfect thing for them to eat their kiwis with. So there's my tip for kids eating kiwi!
Now, I just bought my first avocado. I tried a bite at a friends the other night. I wish I had watched her cut it. Care to give instruction on that one?!?!
If not, at least I have google!

I'm currently living in Malaysia and when buying a pack of 4 kiwi I noticed a little yellow plastic "divider". Thought it was odd but whatever. 2 days later when about to eat one, I realized it was a knife/spoon and figured out what to do. What an awesome idea. I buy 4 packs only now just to get the spoon. I can't wait to show this to the rest of the family. We always peeled and sliced. Didn't even know you can eat the peel. Wish I could find this gadget without buying all these kiwi.

Thank you so much for this information. I just bought Kiwis for the first time and wasted half of it. I peeled it and then tried cutting it. I didn't know if you eat the middle or was it a core. Could I eat the seeds or the skin. I know I wasted alot of good juice peeling and slicing the darn thing. I have to go try it the easy way now that I know I can eat it with a spoon.

My friend slices them in quarters the long way so you end up with 4 long wedges. Then she eats them off the skin the same as eating orange wedges. She takes them on picnics. No need for any silverware this way, just eat off the skin and toss the skin.
