We were having grilled chicken for dinner...

Wife: Let me trim the excess skin off the chicken.

Me: That's okay. It's fine.

Wife: No. Look at that one piece. The fat is hanging off on 3 sides.

Me: It's okay. I'll eat that one.

Wife: it'll just take a sec...

Me: LEAVE MY DAMN CHICKEN ALONE!

Anyone else ever have a similar conversation?

Married for 26 years and thinks crispy chicken skin is gross. She can't understand why I like it...

She’s trying to subtly tell you that you need to lose weight.

Take the hint, fatty.

I feel your pain. Wife will come in when I’m eating hogs head cheese or liver and onions and start trying to intervene.

My wife doesn’t mind chicken skin. She detests blue cheese, olives, and anything spicy ( all things I love btw). My favorite piece of chicken to grill are boneless skinless thighs. I buy them by the 8 pack at Costco andkeep them in the deep freeze.

My wife won't eat chicken thigh meat. I mean she does, but thinks it's breast meat bc that what I've been telling her for the past decade.

No matter how absolute well trimmed and lean a piece of meat is, and I mean ALL meat, chicken, beef, pork, salmon, trout, tuna, shrimp etc., my wife will find something to trim off.

Tell her, "Thank you dear. When you get it trimmed, just leave the skin on my plate so that I can eat it. It is so sweet of you to cut it off. You know how much I love it. If you like I will eat all of the skin from every piece."

This.^^^
If I’m cooking pulled pork, I’ll trim all the fat off within reason. Of course, 99% of the rest of it melts away during a long cooking process. Yet my wife will sit there picking out pieces of fat off her plate that are 1/3 the size of a grain of rice. She will find fat anywhere at any time. If there is no fat, she’ll find something that vaguely resembles fat and pick that out.

Why do people think eating fat makes you fat?

It was just a joke. Relax. No need to start off the New Year with your panties in a wad.

Wives are a mess. Mine got a pair of Burberry,Prada and Manolo shoes for Christmas and a Tanzanite and diamond ring. I got a set of GOT scotches, and some bourbon. Yet she got the short end of the stick. Cant live with them or without them,
