A final note on the subject of skin care:  Collagen.  Collagen is very purposefully ingested in as many ways as possible (in ice cream, above).  Chicken skin apparently is rich in it, and chicken butts especially so.   I'll never forget the first dinner Matthew and I ordered in Japan last year.  We were looking forward to juicy chunks of chicken on skewers but were served instead a plate full of skewers laden with chicken butts.  Collagen or no, I still haven't gotten the hang of those.
