    I will die on this hill. Anti-peelers are using "food is only for nutrition" 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.

            Everyone I know that has a garden (other than my parents) does it.

                You don't need a garden for this, I don't have one right now, that was just the biggest category of people I could think of who regularly make stock lol.

                  You're still confusing what people's options are vs what most people do, which is throw out the peels

                    I never said most people make stock. All I said was that it's easy and I know a lot of people who do it.

        The stock making almost never happens for me.
        Plus some produce discards make the stock worse.
        But throwing it in a pile outside to break down into soil and help grow more vegetables (my thumb is gray so I only lightly supplement grocery store produce with home grown) is better than nothing I guess.

      Non peeler only if I'm making a rustic stew or a German potato salad because it's just feels more authentic. All other instances I peel and compost
