Which part of the turkey is healthiest?
What part of the turkey do you eat? Me, I try to stick to the breast, and maybe a wing if I'm feeling crazy! I've never been a big fan of dark meat -- I just don't like the taste. I swear, the fact that it's healthier has no impact on that. But that doesn't hurt either. Want to know how healthy your favourite cut is? Here's a breakdown of what's healthiest on the bird:
