The word is "edible", not "eatible", unless you're intentionally being humorous.

Sorry, couldn't help it.

I love the word "eatible". I wish it was a real word. But it's just so much fun!

Eatable is a word. From my understanding the definitions of edible and eatable are slightly different. Edible refers to something that you can eat. Eatable refers to something that you'd want to eat.
