Same been doing it my whole and I ain’t dead yet ? Can’t be that bad can it before all the people start about the wax .. yeah wax in honey as well I don’t care
It depends on the apples. Some have this waxy layer on their skin that can't be washed by anything else than dishwashing detergent and I'd honestly rather not eat that haha
It's not dangerous if you're using a paring knife, which is a small knife that is made for peeling things such as apple skins and it's also not able to penetrate human skin. If you are using a chef's knife (larger) as shown in the video, you will definitely bleed or seriously damage your finger if you cut yourself.
As a young child I’d become very stressed watching my grandad peel apples this way. There was also the added fun that he had lost most of the feeling in his fingers from his work, so on the rare occasion a cut happened, it was was usually faint worthy. All that said, I peel them with a knife too :p
My Panamanian Great Grandma told her daughters that if you could peel an apple with a knife in a perfect spiral without it breaking that you would have a long happy marriage someday. When I heard this at 12 I laughed but also took the challenge every time I peeled my apples. Now I'm a pro with the knife. (Also happily married but that's just because my sweetheart is awesome & patient with my crazy antics ☺️)
Me as a kid: can't do it Me as tennager: do it reverse, so I kill the person in front of me instead of me Me as an adult: eat the whole thing I'm talking about oranges
I'll admit that I've learnt how to do many things with just a knife, not only from being raised in a southern us state but because of survival situations. Easier to have the skills to use a good knife many ways than having to stress and struggle if something happens.
That’s actually how my Granny peeled apples (from Ireland)!!Seems in general methods like that used to be taught but with vegetable peelers the need has gone down. Still cool though.
my southern grandmother refuses to use an apple peeler and will only peel apples with a knife, i always worry she’ll end up accidentally cutting herself lol
i remember my native american grandmother slapped the knife out of my hand and told me "NO, the skin is a GIFT, it’s GOOD FOR YOU!" and i always eat the apples with skin. no matter what.
i hated apple peel as a kid, but now that i'm an adult that has to prepare my own food, i've learned to eat it w the skin on. plus there's more nutrients that way. one of those rare instances where being lazy is healthier for you
My mom taught me how to use a knife to cut both oranges and apples. She's also really good at juggling fruits with her leg included. It amazes me when I see her doing it
OMG this is how I was taught to peel things and my early twenties friend freaked out and thought I was going to cut myself. Lol I'm in the US. I just rolled my eyes. He wouldn't listen. Haha
The only way i peel apples is with the tool i have that also cores them and cuts them into a spiral. Perfect for apple crisps or pies or tarts or muffins or apple sauce or apple butter. Grind the apples for cider and hard cider. Filter the cider for apple juice.
honestly I feel like knives give a person more control as you can put your thumb over the dull back and they come in various sizes and sharpness. I feel like peelers are just cuts waiting to happen.
I used an old Potato Peeler for my Apples 🍎 it’s quick and easy too, and the Top of the Potato Peeler doubles to help get out Yucky Spots on the Apple 🍎 too.
Those are people in the US who live in cities, outside of big cities and especially in rural states there are many people who live a more rugged lifestyle and use knives for most things.
I’ve never peeled an apple with a potato peeler lol. Good idea though. Seems quicker than with the knife, cus you can just go crazy with it like on potatoes lol
It makes me feel old seeing so many people in the comments saying either they have never peeled an apple or even heard of peeling them with a knife. That's how we used to peel potato's and apples. From the UK btw not Asian either.
Actually, I don’t know anywhere except in Japan where they still use a knife. Not only is it dangerous but you will have more waste than if you use a pealer
My mom peels apples with a knife, but I just never peel the apples or potatoes 😂 so I’ve never learned how to do it with a knife. I only peel apples to make apple pie/ apple crisp. And I rarely make it. I guess I’ll try next time.
When I first peeled stuff, I peeled towards me and got chastised by my coworkers. I tried it the American way and immediately hurt myself. Never did that shit again. I have a lot more control over my movements when I peel towards myself.
My family has always used a knife to peel fruits or vegetables (Apples, potatoes, carrots etc.). This is more of a generational thing (that can be taught) and/or safety thing than anything else. 😅
Nah I always done been doing this Edit: occasionally, mostly when making snacks for other ppl. When I eat apple by myself I be keeping the peelings cause they’re super good for u!

My lazy self just clean the apple then eat it with the skin 😊
Same 👁👄👁
you clean them?
It’s better for you. Lost most of the nutrients without the skin
I choose not to remove the skin because it's significantly better with the skin.
Same been doing it my whole and I ain’t dead yet ? Can’t be that bad can it before all the people start about the wax .. yeah wax in honey as well I don’t care
Me realizing that people peel their apples 👁👄👁
For recipes that need apples without skin. (Apple pie)
Skin is my favvvvv part 🤤🤤
@@boo1290 u tryna eat my skin ?
My grandma thaught me the knife way haha.
She's not Asian tho..
Am American and have only seen it done with a knife
@@srslee5966 okay👍🏻
it said “vs the rest of the world” not just asians lol
@@verysummer okay
You think only Asians do it huh 💀
The way she used the peeler actually looked way more dangerous for the fingers than the knife😅
Yes! I thought that was the end of the video actually, her saying "You're going to cut your fingers" then cutting her fingers 😂
I didn't know it was standard for people to peel their apples. I just eat them with the skin, it gives it a nice consistency in my opinion
Yeah
It depends on the apples. Some have this waxy layer on their skin that can't be washed by anything else than dishwashing detergent and I'd honestly rather not eat that haha
I think it’s more so for baking and stuff XD
I thought you said "it gives it a nice consistency in my Onion" Onion lol.
@@creamieswirl it does give onions a nice consistency as well
i will never diss other cultures approaches to food except this one... all the nutrients ;--;
Not all of us peel apples lol, it’s just some people are fussy
Oh so it's not just my culture 😂😂
Don't think it has anything to do with culture,tho.. Some just don't like the skin.
The fiber 😢
Some apple varieties have awful tasting skin though.

The only apple peeler I’ve seen is the one they use for pies that peels, cuts, and cores it
Same, but that's also the only time I've seen someone peel an apple
As a young child I’d become very stressed watching my grandad peel apples this way.
There was also the added fun that he had lost most of the feeling in his fingers from his work, so on the rare occasion a cut happened, it was was usually faint worthy.
All that said, I peel them with a knife too :p
I just don't peel it 😐
Wait you guys peel apples
*other people peeling their apples*
Me: 👁️👄👁️
Now me in Russia: peeling apples? i don’t hear it (゜ー゜) apples very tasty without it
Most people in the US only peel apples for baby food and to make pies. The rest of the time, we wash them (wavy outside) then just eat them.
All the grandparents… ✨ *U N I T E* ✨

Me as an adult: eat the whole thing
I'm talking about oranges
this mfer eatin orange peel
@@realleon2328 Cut in 4 slices
Then EAT IT
no need to eat the peel

Hello I love your videos and shorts ❤
that’s just like the normal way, but people say it’s more dangerous but i feel like there’s less control pretty much any other way
The southern states in the US still do that and if you’re lucky it’s a papaw with a pocket knife. Just hits different
That’s how my Granny taught me. Practice means you can get the skin off in one piece 💚
my southern grandmother refuses to use an apple peeler and will only peel apples with a knife, i always worry she’ll end up accidentally cutting herself lol
Yup. My mother. She even taught me to do it.
i remember my native american grandmother slapped the knife out of my hand and told me "NO, the skin is a GIFT, it’s GOOD FOR YOU!" and i always eat the apples with skin. no matter what.
My italian class:you didn't HAD TO CUT me off
we do that in Turkiye too
i hated apple peel as a kid, but now that i'm an adult that has to prepare my own food, i've learned to eat it w the skin on. plus there's more nutrients that way. one of those rare instances where being lazy is healthier for you
I'm an American, and my mama always uses a small knife to cut her apples as she eats. She even eats the slices off of the knife as she cuts.
U.S:Omg that’s so dangerous
Also them:Basicly anyone gets a gun
We eat apples with the skin. Grew up hearing all the nutrients is in the skin. 😃😃
My mom taught me how to use a knife to cut both oranges and apples. She's also really good at juggling fruits with her leg included. It amazes me when I see her doing it
We do that as well in Germany
100% Truth!😂
Maybe for you but there are a bunch that us a peeler
OMG this is how I was taught to peel things and my early twenties friend freaked out and thought I was going to cut myself. Lol I'm in the US. I just rolled my eyes. He wouldn't listen. Haha
Dag I gotta do that! ☺️
Its super normal too in Philippines
The only way i peel apples is with the tool i have that also cores them and cuts them into a spiral. Perfect for apple crisps or pies or tarts or muffins or apple sauce or apple butter. Grind the apples for cider and hard cider. Filter the cider for apple juice.
we do that in India too
I prefer the knife way
honestly
as an American, this is a regular thing in my house hold :)
my mom does that too
(She's Indian)
honestly I feel like knives give a person more control as you can put your thumb over the dull back and they come in various sizes and sharpness. I feel like peelers are just cuts waiting to happen.
We do that aswell in morocco
Pov: Your mom when she is angry at you holding a knife cutting the fruit dramaticly💀
That's true! I only use a knife to peel apples until my 18 to see someone else use a peeler to do that. It was a mind blowing 😜😹!
I used an old Potato Peeler for my Apples 🍎 it’s quick and easy too, and the Top of the Potato Peeler doubles to help get out Yucky Spots on the Apple 🍎 too.
In my country old people really like competing to know who can make the longest apple skin piece in one go, it requires a lot of skill
I guess me and my family are different- cuz we peel every time with a knife cuz we're to poor to get a peeler
The skin adds nutrients plus it tastes good, but that’s just me
I don't think I've ever really seen a peeled apple other than in a McDonald's happy meal.
Those are people in the US who live in cities, outside of big cities and especially in rural states there are many people who live a more rugged lifestyle and use knives for most things.
Apple with skin > without
I wanted to say that we use the knife in Russia too, but then remembered that we don’t peel apples because in Russia apples will peel you.
here in Brazil people peel with a knife too
I just wash it and eat it from the bottom all the way to the stem, that way you don’t have to throw anything away.
Im from central europe and for the longest time I didnt even know these "peelers" existed 😅
Depends on how you were raised. Most of my family uses a knife. For me a peeler is more dangerous. Got my hand once as a kid and never went back. Lol
I’ve never peeled an apple with a potato peeler lol. Good idea though. Seems quicker than with the knife, cus you can just go crazy with it like on potatoes lol
It makes me feel old seeing so many people in the comments saying either they have never peeled an apple or even heard of peeling them with a knife. That's how we used to peel potato's and apples. From the UK btw not Asian either.
The skin is the best part...
It feels like I’m watching anime again😭
I don't even wash them. 💓
The only time I’ve ever eaten peeled apples are when they’re apple slices in a pie, I had no idea people ate them peeled
I am turkish and SAME. But ı like apple with skin
Actually, I don’t know anywhere except in Japan where they still use a knife. Not only is it dangerous but you will have more waste than if you use a pealer
My mother told me I could learn the knife way when I’m older. I’m ecuadorian
I was always taught how to cut skin with a pearing knife. its not that dangerous if you go slowly
Lost opportunity to make bunny apple slices!!!
I have never met anyone who doesn't peel there apples with a knife.
In Russia we also use knife 😅
We do use knives in the south
My mom peels apples with a knife, but I just never peel the apples or potatoes 😂 so I’ve never learned how to do it with a knife. I only peel apples to make apple pie/ apple crisp. And I rarely make it. I guess I’ll try next time.
Uhhhhh the US uses knives too.
That’s how my mom does it lmao
Don't cut off the skin, it's what contains most of the nutrients
It’s true. My jamacian parents tried to show me the knife way… just never got it. I just eat the skin. It’s good anyway. Lol
My grandma be doin thr same thing with dat knife
I can promise you most American Chefs do it with knives
If I ever got a peeler to peel an apple my entire family would start judging me very harshly
i’m from the us my family cuts apple skin with knifes💀
That skin contains over 95% of pesticides that are on/in that apple (if apple is produced in the conventional way). So pealing it DOES make sense.
That’s just how I eat apples.
I eat the skin :V
Who peels an apple with a potato peeler
When I first peeled stuff, I peeled towards me and got chastised by my coworkers. I tried it the American way and immediately hurt myself.
Never did that shit again. I have a lot more control over my movements when I peel towards myself.
I am from America and I was taught to peel with a knife. Just easier that way
It’s literally not lol
@@jessecoulson5357 it literally is lol
Wait...so you going to tell me that they ae someone out there didn't use knife to peel apples?
I’ve done both 😂
I eat my apples with the skin on, but my uncle taught me how to peel them with a knife and one long curly piece
me and my family as Pilipinos:using peellers
I've always used the knife method😅
My mom taught me to cut it this way lol
My family has always used a knife to peel fruits or vegetables (Apples, potatoes, carrots etc.). This is more of a generational thing (that can be taught) and/or safety thing than anything else. 😅
the reason i tend to not peel apples is because the peels have fiber in them which is good for your body
Nah I always done been doing this
Edit: occasionally, mostly when making snacks for other ppl. When I eat apple by myself I be keeping the peelings cause they’re super good for u!
eating apples peeled is a standard in asia
Uuh I always used a knife as well lmao
I peel my apples when I make pie and then eat the skin myself. Peelers are too slippery compared to a decently sharpened knife
Seeing the comments and from personal experience, I'd say it's not only Japanese lol
