I just read that ground turkey and chicken include both breast and skin. Yikes! Get the people at the grocery store to grind some breasts without skin for you. They should label the package: ground skin-on chicken breasts, not simply ground chicken breast. I just never think of it in any form but naked, this was a shock to me.

I didn't know that either!
I have some in the freezer, I'll have to check on that.

Always get it ground for you. That way you know exactly what parts and other non compliant bb food are not in there!

That's odd, because if you look at the fat content it doesn't seem to reflect the fats associated with the skin. Even if that's true, its not the end of the world. When its grilled some of the fat will drip away anyway.
