    I eat it, unless it's dry and icky. Maybe tbe way your friend cooks them makes the skin unappetizing.

    No...it's too chewy. I eat the skin of red and golden potatoes though.

    Regular potato? Yes. Sweet potato? For some reason no.

    I've never imagined wanting to eat the skin of a baked sweet potato. I'm still not enticed to.

    Yep for all potatoes. The only time I would not eat the skin is if I was making mash. I’ll remove the skin if making homemade chips or roast potatoes, but not wedges or boiled (not that I boil sweet potato)...think it’s just an aesthetic thing on chips for me. On any sort of baked potato I especially love the skin being mega crispy.

    Oh, I have also eating the skin on Butternut Squash, but that is a lazy thing as they are such a pain to peel. Perfectly edible tho.
