Boiled chicken breast skin tastes like soap I often buy full chicken in supermarkets and boil it. I noticed that its outermost breast skin part (only skin, and only that part where you would expect nipples) tastes like soap. At first I thought that maybe I didn't clean the dish-washing liquid from the fork completely or something, but then I realized that this happens with ALL chickens I bought... They were from different sources, of different sizes and complexity. Does any body know the reason? Thanks
Maybe it's not soap that you taste.  At least here in the US, most chicken bound for the supermarket is sprayed or dipped in a bleach solution.  It could be you are picking up on that, but it is not a taste I've ever noticed.
