Do You Eat Skin? Turkey, Chicken, but especially DUCK?

No, I'm not encouraging cannabalism. When I ask if you eat skin, I mean animal skin say for dinner or a snack?
I try to cook a bird so the skin isn't wasted. Chickens I roast with the skin uncovered. Ditto for turkeys. I peel the skin over the breast, salt it well, and enjoy it as the treat it is.
Best of all: I positively delight in eating duck skin! What, do you say it's too greasy? When I go to roast a duck (which I haven't done in some time due to the rising price), I put fork marks in the skin to allow excess fat to run out the holes.
I brown the duck and cook it thoroughly (I don't like duck cooked like the nutty chefs would suggest it should be cooked). I thoroughly salt and this is the very best.
You?

I absolutely love eating the skin of chicken turkey and duck I also love adding the fat juices after they are cooked and using it in the gravy.

There you go! A fellow with an intelligent perspective! I like that better than: kill the animal, then throw it away. Besides, it tastes delicious. Most of our health problems are probably due to genetic issues and lack of exercise.

@JonnyRich I am a retired chemist. I make excellent, lump-free gravy! I love a combination of about 50% mashed potatoes and 50% gravy. AND I like to include tiny pieces of giblets in the gravy. As Jackie Gleason used to say, "How sweet it is!"
