Until I learned the secret to removing the skin from a kiwi: I'll never cut the skin off again!
Simply cut the ends off the kiwi, gently insert a spoon between the skin and the fruit, and with a twisting motion, separate the skin from the fruit. I like to use a grapefruit spoon; it cuts through easily.
Check out this video on peeling a kiwi. If you eat kiwi on a regular basis ( or avoid it because of the PITA skin ) - you've got to give this video a minute of your time!
