About Turkey, whole, skin (light and dark), raw
Raw turkey skin from both light and dark areas of the bird is predominantly fat with a relatively small protein fraction. Like chicken skin, it contains no carbohydrates and no fiber. Turkey skin is notably fattier by weight than the underlying muscle, and it renders considerably during roasting. When the bird is cooked at high heat, much of this fat drips away or gets absorbed back into the meat, but a significant amount also crisps on the surface.
