Baked Potato: skin or no skin?

  1. Eat it all, baby! The skin is where the nutrients are at anyway.

  2. Ewww! No way!

    9.1%
  3. Potatoes? Are you serious? Who eats potatoes?

    2.3%
  4. What is this "baked" you speak of? The only way to have potatoes is sliced/chopped and fried!

    Quick poll:

    When masticating baked potatoes, how many of you usually eat the skin, and how many leave it?

    Unless it's a sweet potato, the skin goes in (my tummy)!

    The inside only gets eaten to justify eating the skin.

    There's no "Other" option.

    Whether or not I eat the potato skin depends on how the potato was cooked/how the potato skin tastes. Not much taste = not worth the insulin I would have to take to compensate for the starch.

    I knew there was a reason I set out with 5 options, but when I got around to making the list, I couldn't remember what #5 was, and shortened it to 4 :ashamed001 - "None of the Above" or "Other" was going to be #5

    Every since I can remember I've eaten baked potato skins. In fact as a kid I'd often eat the skins of everyone else's baked potatoes too. When we first got married, my wife had never seen anyone eat potato skins, except maybe pigs on the farm. She thought it was way gross at the time and still remarks whenever I do it, especially in public for some reason (I mean honestly, it's not like I'm farting at the table or anything)
