Fruitful Vexation

I once knew a person who ate kiwi - the fruit, not the bird - whole. Fuzzy skin and all. Most people I know tend to eat their peaches with skin as well. It's a curious thing, really. I cannot help but wonder what the nature of the natural human instinct toward hair really is. If most can tolerate the tiny amount of fuzz on a peach (which, for the record, I personally find rather irritating, as it causes my lips to itch), then why not simply buzz-cut all of our cows and chickens before we eat them? Now before you all start haranguing me with a chorus of Ewww! Gross!, I would like you to really think about this question. Give me your answer, and then you can tell me how repugnant you find the suggestion.
