Yes it is ok. It should not kill you. we do a lot more other riskier and disgusting things in life.Anyway all fruit should be wahsed. If you can find a water fountain or take in the bathroom sink and wash it off that might work. Anything you have to peel is probably safer without washing. like grapes and apples you eat the skin you don't know what it has come in contact with or what kind of pesticides were used.

Of course you CAN eat them. The real question is, was the risk worth the reward? To put it another way, you chose a behavior in spite of its possible negative consequence. So, you're here typing and not bent over the toilet, so all's well that ends well, eh?

Think that I would try and eat the fruits that have to be peeled. It is a little safer than eating the skins off fruit that hasn't been washed.

yes you can chomp on them straight from the mall but the question lies on whether or not you have a good set of antibodies :)
as for me, i just can't take the risk as i have poor immunity over bacteria and stuff :)

If this is the biggest risk you take then I think you'll be just fine. I only wash mine about half the time....

it isnt recommended, but you can eat your fruit unwashed. just dont make a habit out of it. for risks go bungee jumping or something

yes, the most dangerous is the chemical agriculture, pesticides and compounds used to grow it.
I mean.. eat it if you grow it, don't get it in a mall, you will better safe

I would have given it a rub on my shirt or found a tap.
I'm sure you will be fine though.
