                                According to research from Tufts University, a carrot's skin is perfectly safe to eat, though it's packed with concentrated nutrients like vitamin C and niacin. This brings to light the common kitchen dilemma: should you remove skin from carrots or enjoy them in their entirety? The answer isn't a simple yes or no and depends heavily on your goals for nutrition, flavor, and texture.
