Question: Is it ok to eat raw carrots with the skin on!?
Answers:
Yeah, I do it all the time, but make sure you wash it after buying it - you don't know who's handled it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, as long as you clean them well!. I used to love to eat carrots that way or I would dip it in something then eat it!. Now, I can't eat carrots because I wear dentures and I now have a fear of choking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

yes! its healthier than eating them with the skin off!.

you should wash them thouroughly though!. most of the dietry fibre is just under the skin of many fruits and vegies, so this will ensure you're getting lots of fibre!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I do, but only if they are organic and after I wash them!. I always peel non-organic ones first because I always feel like they have pesticides!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Wash them well, sometimes in some countries human waste is used as a fertilizer!. Same rules as unwashed salad!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
