Do you eat the skin of a baked potato?

Question

Lliam · Accepted Answer

Always. I love it, especially when they are a bit crispy. I usually rub the skin with butter or olive oil and salt before I bake the potatoes.

I had a baked potato for dinner last night with butter, salt and pepper, sour cream, green onion, and cheddar cheese. Eating the crispy skin with sour cream is the best.

Yes, it is the best part. I like them xtra crispy. I leave the potato on the little shelf on my gas grill until they get a little black.

Only if it is at a restaurant cause I know their food is specifically chosen for it - at home - I rarely have potatoes that are shaped clean enough for me to eat the skin.

ShaTTeredMasterpeace · Accepted Answer

Yes I do. I love a good baked potato

NamerOfStars · Answer

Of course. If you eat the skins (and can handle something like fourteen pounds of them a day), you gan literally live on nothing but potatoes and water. They have everything you need.

Nah, i take out the potato like rippin out someones organs just so I can season it in a bowl and eat while the skin of the body dries and it di- oh wait we talking about potatoes still.

When I bake it myself, yes I do. In a restaurant, usually I don't. "You don't know where that potato's been!" Lol

Of course, the best bit, full of goodness. Puts hairs on your chest (or curls in your hair, I always mix it up with crusts and can't remember which does which :))

Massageman · Answer

Absolutely. That where the iron and many other nutrients are. On an ounce-per ounce basis, the skin has more of many vitamins and minerals than the fleshy, inside part of the spud. Plus, I like them.
