Subject:	Can I eat cucumbers/squashes with skin?
Date:	July 19, 2012 at 11:56 am PST

I eat about 2bs of cucumbers per day in my fruit smoothies.
However very often I get tartness/bitter taste and "numb"
tongue from my smoothies. I am wondering what could cause such
reactions-cucumbers, iceberg lettuce or squashes that I blend
in large amounts with their skins on.
So, is it ok to blend cucumbers and summer squashes with their
skins on? The taste of skins is really bitter for these
fruits.
