WTF? What's the difference between the skin and the rest of everything you eat?

Do you not eat the skin of any animal food?

Also, if you had tried the skin of chicken roasted in the turbo you'd be singing a different tune.

Do we really eat that much skin from non-bird animals?  I guess pigs maybe, but only if you're into cracklins or pork rinds.  You don't for fish or cows or lamb or goats, right?

Yeah, that is a down side of eating chicken that has come directly from the farm without being cleaned or washed, which is apparently what you think we are discussing?
Cleaned or washed... you're a goddamn riot.  Do you know how many times (across brands) that I've opened a whole chicken and found feathers that weren't completely plucked?  If they can't properly pluck the chicken, how well do you think they are cleaning it?

I've pulled feathers off of whole birds too, but I'm not freaking out that it's not clean.  I take the feathers off, rinse the bird (I know that they say now not to do that), and the heat of the oven will kill any bacteria on there.

Have you never had chicken wings or fried chicken?

You realize that the skin is a protective layer between the outside world and the meat, correct?

Yeah, I was trying to come up with examples and couldn't think of any.

I definitely eat fish skin and the skin of chicken, turkey, duck. I guess also pork, but I can't think of any pork dishes with skin that I personally like.

I've never seen a chicken feather in my chicken before (and really if I did, I don't expect I'd care much).

You think nothing "bad" gets under the skin?

Look, I think we're just going to have to agree to disagree.  You go ahead and keep eating it.  I'm going to go ahead and not.

I haven't had on-the-bone wings in years and I can't remember the last time I ate fried chicken.

Admit you're wrong and what you like is gross.

Fair enough. Sounds like you just think animal skin is gross. Which is weird but fine. You can skip the turbo.

Everybody else out there, though, you need to try it.

The funny thing about the turbo (which I want to keep talking about while we wait to hear from Micah on how the orange chicken was), is that you can cook hella stuff in it, but we basically only do chicken. My daughter's preschool teacher cooks almost everything in hers. One of these days I should try to cook a couple other things.
