Patient: Doctor, it hurts when I do this!Doctor: Well then, don't do that.
Sorry, I know that's not helpful. Maybe you should try rinsing them thoroughly before feeding.

peel, cut and freeze
wash before feeding
clear uneaten 15 mins later
used it to feed my eel as mysis shrimp does not sink

I hope someone else pops in here for you, as I haven't done this before.
Anyway, try changing your process up. Maybe:
• peel, cut, wash, and freeze
• thaw, drain, and wash before feeding
• clear uneaten 15 5 mins later
I doubt it would make a big difference, but what if you peeled, washed, and fed (without freezing) as a test?
