I have nover been cleaning the chicken in our house but one time I have done it, I intentionally removed the skin because its a temptation to us specially when deep fried. Imagine the amount of cholesterol in a skin not to mention the oil used, how much fat will we consume? Please share here your opinion about eating chicken skin specially the fried ones.

I know the skin is the worse part, but i love the skin.
I eat it all the time when we have chicken.

I admit that I only eat the skin when its crispy. That is when its most apealing to. But I try not to eat more.

deep fried anything is not healthy, obviously, and chicken skin is a killer because it is fatty already. but as an occasional treat, well i guess it might be ok

Yes, its not good but I hope there is something that we could eat together with it so the harm, if there still, would be minimal. Do you know any? Please share it hear. Oh, we really like the crispy skin. I hope that there is remedy to it.

I love the taste of the fried chicken skin but do not eat it all the time.Its not a good idea to intake all of that fat into your system. But I love indulging myself every so often. Its a treat for me.

Hi! I have the same feeling to it. Sometimes I indulge with it but I always think that I should regulate the amount I consume. Thank you for the response.

I do not the skin on chicken at all. If I buy the chicken with the skin on, I take it off before I eat it. I usually buy boneless skinless chicken, now it is too expensive, so I buy the chicken with the skin and bones. Even if I fry the chicken, I will remove the skin before eating. My reason for doing this is because I do not like the skin on any meat, including fish.

Skin of chicken is a strict no no for me. I neither like the idea of using it nor is it healthy.
