When you eat a baked potato, do you eat the skin?

Question

No, I don't when eating out. Yes, when I am home.

Answer 1

I don't like the skin. I know I should eat it though, because its the healthiest part of the potato, and its good for your skin, I just hate the way it tastes.

Answer 2

I don't when its just a regular baked potato, but when I get those potato skin appetizers with the cheese and bacon, THEN I eat the skin....

now that I think about it, thats actually common sense since the are called potato SKINS....if I didn't eat the skin there wouldn't be much else to eat lol

Answer 3

Me, too! Never out because I think they didn't wash it well enough. At home I do, and I only eat half. The other half is for my dog. That old hound loves baked potato.

Answer 4

I eat the skin all the time. Did you know that is the healthiest part of the potato?

Answer 5

yes, usually not all of it, but yes, if it's soaked with enough butter! doesn't matter for me if i'm in or out, but now that you mention it, i do tend to eat the skin less if i'm out. that might be also cuz they give you such darn big potatoes at restaurants and i'm already too full; at home we eat smaller ones.

Answer 6

Depends on if it's salted. If so, then yes. If not, then no, unless I eat it with the potato.

Answer 7

I have only eaten the skin on red potatoes.

Answer 8

yes i do and i make sure that i clean the potatoe real good to get all the dirt off it

Answer 9

I don't when I eat out because I don't know how clean it is.
But I do at home because I know it is clean. Little salt and pepper, Cheddar cheese, real bacon , and butter mmm good.

Answer 10

Yes. It's the best part.
