    I like the smell of cooking meat. Raw chicken is gross to touch bare handed for me. Won’t lose an appetite over it though.

      Raw chicken breast, skin-off, is among the single grossest foods to handle. I’m a huge lover of cooking and I didn’t learn to cook chicken breast for ages because of the feel of it.

      I usually wear gloves for it now, even after nearly two decades of having cooked it. And for most other poultry, but it’s chicken breast that’s the worst.

      Try working in a grocery meat department. Having to clean under the racks where the chicken sat still scars me to this day. Imagine pumping a drunk, morbidly obese man full of farts which he then vomits back up and you’ll have a good idea of what that smelled like.
