No, I haven’t and am unlikely to do so. Even to read the Washington Post’s recipe for skin-on banana bread was curiously nauseating, as close as I’ve ever come to feeling morning sickness when I’m not pregnant. So I’ll keep putting my food scraps, including bones, into our city compost bin. Ordinarily we buy what we eat.

Some of that stuff is just no digestible or affirmatively harmful to humans (e.g., apple seeds). Some of it can be repurposed differently. I boil bones down to make marrow mush for my dog. I shred the broccoli stalks into salad. Beet greens are delicious in their own right. Watermelon rind can be sweet-pickled. I'll zest a lemon peel to save for baking. Orange rind can be candied and is used in many Sicilian desserts -- although I've never done that, as I don't particularly care for it. I feel like compost is a happy medium ground for the stuff that would be a pain to use, however. And there's some stuff -- like corn husks -- which I don't think can be used as food.

Are you a goat or something?

That is composting, just a different way...

Has anyone eat the entire vegetables/fruits instead of composting? I'm talking about when you cut a green pepper or apple and you even eat the stems or somehow blend it and use it to make soup or blend it into something else for consumption? Or you save the orange peel for something else you can consume?
