1. no, I eat lemon peels. The peels from any citrus fruit is good for you because it's full of vitamin E and other essential vitamins.
2. Sorry, but it is weird. I don't know anyone who eats the peel. ICK. Try the insides. :)
3. I know that I don't. I'm not sure if it's the best thing for your digestive system, but if you like them, and they don't bother you in any kind of way, then I don't see why you can't eat them!
4. isnt is sour?
5. No that's not weird, I eat banana peels.
6. Most people don't... but it's not weird. My grammy did too. :)
7. atlleat i dont eat them..... ya its lil awkward bt its ok . its in ur genes afterall
8. no , in fact asain markets sell dried tangerine peels. they are good
9. Nah, I've been eating peels since I was a kid
10. Personally, I don't because of the bitter taste. But if you like 'em and don't suffer for it, enjoy your peels!
11. Wow, i had no idea you could, i figured it would rip up someones stomach. Not strange but different for sure. I love oranges but peeling them and the citrus everywhere it would seem intense to eat haha interesting fact though :)
12. yes it's strange that you eat them.
13. It's not so common to eat raw orange peels, but candied orange peels are quite tasty and popular in many cultures. They are also used in various baking recipes. In any case, there is nothing wrong or unhealthy with eating orange peels. If you like them, enjoy them. And since you are in the minority, you get to eat your friends' orange peels, too, when the oranges get passed around!
14. The only problem I see with eating orange peels is they are covered in chemicals like: pesticides and orange die. I've eaten the inner peal sometimes. If you want to eat them, it's best to look for the organically grown ones.
15. Hey Left handers rock :) - cool name I eat lemon and orange peels. It's okay if people think its nasty.. we are unique :) lol Oh and orange peels are used in some recipes to make the flavor better. Or they use it as a decoration on foods. So lots of people eat it. It's actually healthy to eat because it can lower cholesterol. But make sure you wash it before you eat it! :)
16. No, it's not that weird. Candied orange peels are incredibly delicious ..... and people eat more citrus peels than they think, if they eat anything that has "zest" in it
