Can you eat the skin on summer sausage?

It depends on the type of summer sausage!

Generally, you can eat the skin on summer sausage.

However, there are a few factors to consider:

* Natural casing vs. artificial casing: Summer sausage can be encased in either natural casings (made from animal intestines) or artificial casings (usually made from collagen or cellulose). Natural casings are edible, while artificial casings are not.

* Type of casing: Even with natural casings, some are treated with chemicals to preserve them, which might make them less desirable to eat.

* Personal preference: Some people prefer to remove the casing, even if it's edible, simply because they find the texture unpleasant.

If you're unsure whether the casing is edible, it's always best to check the label or contact the manufacturer.

Ultimately, the decision of whether to eat the skin is up to you!
