All parts of the kiwi fruit are fine, just wash well as you don't know what pesticides have been used, or get organic  :thumbsup:

For the kids I just cut them in half and they use a tea spoon to scrape out the middle like a boiled egg!

I always peel fruits and veggies for any possible mould, bacteria or pesticide residue. But Buku is not huge on fruit and veg, so he doesn't get much in anyway. :(
