No skin. Eww. I either peel and slice, or if the kiwi is real ripe you can slice off one end and eat the fruit from the inside with a spoon. Kind of like a fuzzy green soft boiled egg. Except that doesn't sound good, does it, LOL?

No skin.

Even with the new "fuzzless" hybrids, the skin is kind of papery.

When kiwis were first imported into the US by Frieda Kaplan, back in
the late '60s I think it was, they were distributed with a little info
sheet on how to eat them: chill, halve, and scoop with a spoon the
way you'd eat a melon. That's still, to me, the most satisfactory way.
