I'd describe kiwi skin as a slightly tougher edible fuit skin. I love its taste and texture. Don't even really notice the fuzziness on the outside because the juices from the inside dominate the mouth feel in the short period before you destroy the surface by chewing, and the hairs are brittle enough that they don't really get stuck between the teeth or anything (more likely to get a piece of skin sticking along a smooth surface like the side of a tooth or roof of your mouth, but those are easy to free).

It's like a cross between cucumber skin (toughness) and tomato skin (strength), but with a sour and bitter kiwi flavour when you chew through it. Not sure I'd enjoy them without the sweetness of the kiwi meat going along with it.
