Pat, We're the same way. Limited on the figs that we have tried. It was just nice to have a different taste.
No, the skin was ok to my family.

Art, this is what my Kadota looked like on 8-27-2013. It is a very good looking fig.

Bugs, It is a good looking fig.
It is a better fig than I figured.

That looks a heckofalot like the figs from the "dwarf" fig tree I bought from a nursery catalog several years ago. We've been picking them for after dinner treats since it is in a pot right next to the picnic table on our deck. I just had one after finishing off my wife's home made piazza with fresh tomatoes and Basil from the garden. Talk about paradise!

Our VERY first fig!  It was exiting moment to try our first fig this morning....someone enjoyed just smelling it :)
