You can put a few peelings down the disposal and not run into any issues. However, a large batch can clog your drains. I had a five pound bag once. The disposal cut it up, but there was so much "gunk", the pipe clogged on me. I had to disconnect the u-shaped fitting under the sink and remove the waste. So if you have a lot of peelings, only run a few down at a time.
