Is it safe to eat the skin of a carrot?!


Question: Is it safe to eat the skin of a carrot!?
also can you suggest a delicious way to snack on carrots!? my idea is to dip the whole chunk of un-severed carrot to a jar of cheesy stuff or something like that and eat it!.

the dip-in should be the ones that dont decay on room temperature cos theres no fridge!. any ideas!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Most of the nutrients in vegetables are found directly under the peel so peeling them would remove a lot of the goodness!. Jut give them a bit of a wash and tuck in!.
How about dipping them in pesto, there are so many great types, or salad dressing!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

There isn't technically skin on a carrot, but if you mean just eating them without peeling them, then yes, it's completely safe!. Just rinse them off really well!. They're slightly healthier unpeeled, and personally, I think they taste better!. I love to snack on raw carrots plain, but you could try hummus!. Yum!. :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

The skin of every vegetable is good for you!. Many people get rid of the best part of a vegetable by peeling it!. I think cleaning it is more important!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

wash the carrot well and it should be fine!. i eat the skin all the time!.
any creamy salad dressings will taste good with itWww@FoodAQ@Com

Carrots don't have skin!. Try eating carrots with ranch dressing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
