    How can I answer that? What kind of diet are we talking about? I know I have been eating alot of those lately, funny you mentioned it. I'm not cutting or anything but as long as it fits in your approach, I don't see a problem with them.

    Nutritionally speaking they are good.
    But why don't you simply eat turkey breasts? I love them.

    Ground turkey is all over the map as far as being healthy or not. Ground turkey breast is great.

    Same with ground beef, some is good some is bad.

    Ground turkey conspiracy.
