Was thinking the same thing
You're either peeling or cooking wrong. It takes like a minute to peel a whole bunch of carrots and makes a massive difference. You should also be using said peelings when making stock.
Dying for a struggle session
I will die on this hill. Anti-peelers are using "food is only for nutrition" techbro-ass arguments.
You do you I’m just here for a struggle session
| techbro-ass arguments.
I'm on the no peel train cause I generally think it tastes better. Also no one IRL is making stock.
I make stock about every other month from trimmings. Literally just keep your veggie scraps in the freezer until you have enough then throw them in a crock pot with water for a day and strain.
Oh, you can do that. I'm saying no one does.
Everyone I know that has a garden (other than my parents) does it.

Peel your vegetables and feed them to your outdoor cat along with all the bugs you swatted
What does peeling a carrot even do, depriving yourself of valuable minerals.
It straight up tastes better in almlost all cases and you can still use the peelings for stock or for your compost bin. If you're that worried about the missing vitamins and minerals just eat one extra carrot.
tastes better? lol
@ta00000 is right why are you doing this over carrots, at least make it about potatoes or something
I just picked the easiest vegetable to peel. That said, in almost all circumstances aside from grilled over an open fire, peeled carrots do taste better.
i will never willingly peel a carrot, it's a waste of time
Cool. No one is forcing you to.

Disagree, skin on tastes better.
wrong, skin tastes better actually
Why are you bringing up the most unnecessary veg to peel? Give me your peelings I'll eat them instead of you don't want nutrients.
Call me a dirty hedonist but I like when things taste better.
Tbh as someone who peels carrots for the aesthetic the difference in taste and nutrition is extremely marginal
Do you marinate your carrots before cooking?
serving unhusked corn with the silks hanging out and telling people to deal with it
Grabbing a banana and just taking a bite out of the middle peel and all
Some things need to be peeled and other things are optional
they make people at work peel the fucking cucumber they use for the salad bar
they make people PEEL the CUCUMBER for the SALAD BAR
Cucumber skins irritate many people's stomachs.
English cucumbers don't but common cucumbers do.
Very specific situation but if you're pressure canning vegetables and it tells you to peel them, do it because the given time is for the lower potential c.botulinum load of peeled produce.
Be a plant.
Put all your nutrients on a thin dead layer on the outside where they're inaccessible to the live cells.
????
Profit.
I would peel my foreskin but my mom gave the okay for it to be ripped from my body
Woah! woah! woah! There's still plenty of veggie on that peel! You throw it in a pot and add some broth and tomatoes and baby, you got a stew going!
Fun fact I ate mango skins for years before learning that's weird
Apparently that and kiwifruit skin are nutritious and edible, but also you will get whatever glyphosate wasn't washed off, and we know glyphosate is stored in the balls, so its a trade off.
me when the veggies are peeled (skin is good fiber)
Nomming on a banana unpeeled like nature intended. 
When it’s time to eat the rich we all become Tibetan monks. No skin on my ~~veggies~~ ~~serfs~~ bourgeoisie
Just for that, I'm keeping the peel on and adding extra peel
I hate peeling vegetables for stuff at work because then I have to hand wash the peeler and idfk how I'm supposed to? It's sharp? it's got teeth? steel wool will just scrape it up and blunt it? idk I take a steel wool and just gently try to get all the food bits I can but it's like i'd so much rather not.
Just blast it with water and wipe it with a dry cloth.
It just doesn't feel clean enough 😭
It's fine. Source: dishwasher for like 5 years, am now a sous chef.
How dirty did it really get when all it did was peel some vegetables? It's not like it has raw meat on it
my mom told me vegetable skins have all the vitamins
