In this paper, we employ game theory to analyze the optimal consumption strategies for kiwi fruit, a popular and nutritious fruit known for its tangy and slightly sweet taste. Through the lens of Nash equilibrium, we develop a model that maximizes vitamin C intake while minimizing the messiness of hands, an often-overlooked factor in kiwi consumption. Our findings suggest that the optimal strategy involves carefully peeling the kiwi and slicing it into bite-sized pieces, eating each piece with a fork, and wiping hands frequently with a napkin. We provide a theoretical framework for the myth that kiwis are "too messy" to eat and we hope that our work can contribute to a more efficient and enjoyable kiwi consumption experience.
