the answer can't be BARK because we don't eat Wood.

the answer must be RIND of a fruit (kiwi skin? Orange peel?) or Sausage (skin ?)

banana peel?

i guess Peel and Peau are not cognates?

>>> Peel and peau are indeed cognates.

Both words come from the Latin word "pellis," meaning "skin." Over time, the word evolved differently in the languages they became:

Peel: This word entered English through Old French "peler," which itself derived from the Latin "pellis."

Peau: This French word directly descended from the Latin "pellis" with some sound changes.
So, even though "peel" and "peau" don't look exactly alike, they share a common ancestor and have the same core meaning, making them cognates.
