Sometimes I eat the core, when I'm feeling it or can't find a foreseeable place to throw the core away. Otherwise I just eat the apple down to the point that the core is falling apart.

I want an apple now D:
 
I eat the core! I used to think there was some reason not to, but hey, it tastes good and I don't think it does anything bad.
 
Yeah, I leave the core - I carefully chew my way around it. I'm not very fond of the texture of the core; and I wouldn't want to swallow any apple seeds.
 
I don't. I find it all chewy and not chewy at the same time. Tastes okay, I just don't like the feel of it while eating.
 
I don't eat the core of an apple. However, I do eat the shells on sunflower and pumpkin seeds. Does that count?

Apple seeds actually have a cyanide compound in them. [link] But it's not a large enough amount to be dangerous if you eat a couple of seeds. And I feel like I'm just restating the article, so you can read the rest of it if you're interested.

I sometimes do and sometimes don't. We have this apple slicer thing that cuts it into like 10 slices and cuts out the core, and whenever I use that, I usually take a couple of bits out of the core before I throw it away. If I'm just eating it whole, I might eat the core if I really don't feel like getting up to throw it away.
 
I love apples, but I never eat the core. I either throw it out or give it to one of my rabbits.
