How to Peel a Kiwi

Kiwis are a fruit often associated with New Zealand, but did you know they're actually native to East Asia? Each furry fruit is loaded with antioxidants and has about one and half times the recommended daily allowance of vitamin C.

Because they're small and soft, they can be a little tough to peel without making a mess, but here's a fool-proof way to get all the green goodness out of every kiwi.

Then, slide a small spoon between the skin and the flesh and gently turn the kiwi to separate the fruit from the fuzzy skin.
