    Question fish question

    Is fish skin like chicken skin? ....meaning like is it very bad for you? Or is it ok and can be eaten?

    I just broiled a salmon steak that had skin on it and I peeled it off and chuncked it in the trash. I was wondering if its bad for you or not.

    Other than Fish skin is fine for you. Salmon, swordfish and shark do tend to have a bit of fat right under the skin but nothing detrimental.

    Thanks Jodi. I wasn't sure.

    I did see a bit of fat under the skin so I decided to throw it away. I didn't really need it anyway.

    Haha.. I like that too. You just need to prepare it well. The good flavor always comes from fat. Nothing healthy about it though.

    I eat sardines a lot, and the skin is still on them. I eat the bones too. Of course, I eat the skin on kiwi fruit too, but most people think I'm insane.
