This will be a post and run as I've worked all night and head back in again this afternoon. After a discussion at work last night, I'm curious how you eat a peach.

I eat everything but the pit, fuzzy skin and all.

The skin fuzz bothers me, I peel it off and eat the rest.

I don't like the skin fuzz or the part directly around the pit. I only like the flesh.

Peaches come from a can. They were put there by a man... bonus points if you now have the song stuck in your head.

    If you don't like fuzz, wouldn't you be better off eating a nectarine?

    I tend to go for nectarines over peaches, but went eating a peach I eat it fuzz and all.  I would eat the pit if it were edible.

    This was my argument last night.  Apparently there were no nectarines at the farmers market.

    I love peaches!  No fuzz for me though.  I also prefer peaches over nectarines, they are just better.

    I don't think peach fuzz is all that bad... it's barely noticeable to me. People who eat kiwi fuzz, however, boggle my mind.

    Exactly.

    I am a nectarine girl.  And it has to be really underripe too, I want it crunchy, not mushy.

    NO ONE eats kiwi fuzz!!  Are you being serious?! That's revolting.

    (Kiwi insides, on the other hand, are absolutely delicious.)

    I imagine Kiwi fuzz tearing up the inside of my mouth like tiny little razor blades.

    I'll even go so far as I need to cut my nectarine because it gets mushy when you eat it like an apple.

    I knew a girl who did it and I asked her how she managed, and she said she washed it and the leftover hairs didn't bother her. ::shiver::  I then googled and read that it's actually really good for you, tons of vitamins or something. But I'll never, ever try it.

    Why don't you? I can't not pet cats. Or hug them. With cats I know like attention, I get all "I want to hug you and squeeze you and love you forever" with them. 

    On a side note, I tried to find a gif/picture of that old cartoon with the guy who squeezes animals to death and wants to name them George...... and apparently I typed in the wrong search info and totally got a result of boobs. Only one nipple was visible in the thumbnail, but that's totally NSFW. I'm kind of paranoid I'll get fired. I'm putting myself on a time-out from Googling.

    I will eat a peach any possible way. I love peaches. I usually only peel them if I'm canning them though.

    I cut my peaches up when I eat them too.  I hate when they get all mushy.

    Fresh peaches I eat all of it down to the pit. I cut the peach off the pit and eat it in slices.

    I'm not adverse to eating canned peaches too, or frozen.

    I loved blasting that song in my car when I was younger. *off to youtube* :D
