EpicPink Himalayan Salt Pork Rinds, Keto Consumer Friendly, 4Ct Box 2.5oz bags (Pack of 4)

I’ve recently started to follow a keto diet and it’s been a struggle to find an occasional keto “cheat” snack (think potato chips) that wasn’t fried and was still low in carbs. I remember eating the “old school” fried pork rinds as a kid and these definitely seem like a slightly healthier alternative since they are baked while still maintaining the original pork rind flavor that I remember as a kid.I’m not sure if some of these other Amazon reviewers saying that they received bags with half of the pieces being hard / inedible (could crack your teeth) or others who claim that they don’t taste good may have received bad batches of this product, but that was not my personal experience at all. For someone that’s trying to stick with a keto diet while looking for an occasional “cheat” snack I think these Epic Pink Himilayan Baked Pork Rinds are just perfect - light and crunchy with good flavor (i.e. the complete opposite of what some of these other reviewers are saying)!

Great high protein low fat snack to have if you’re trying to reach your protein goals for the day! I have it on subscription.

These taste great, just the right amount of salt and crunch, but they are really small pieces. I bought them to replace chips in my diet (no carbs) and I was going to use them to dip but they were a little too small for that.

Purchased and crushed up a bag for a keto meatball recipe in place of breadcrumbs . The other bags have been a great chip alternative.

I’m gluten-free so these snacks are packed with protein and a little bit of salt. Perfect for a gluten-free diet, specially when you wanna add a little protein.

These are the best tasting pork rinds I have ever had, and they are baked and not fried. Only issue is about every fifth piece I get a hard piece that is impossible to eat. If the company had better quality control to take out the rock hard pieces then this item would have received five stars.

Best snack so far and carnivore friendly

I got these by accident (sea salt flavored). As a big fan of pork rinds, I was actually excited by the error. Excited until I actually tried one. They manage to be both dry and greasy. They have a stale/bland taste that is undeniably meaty, but not in a good way (in a morning-breath way).I work in the outdoors and thought maybe when really tired/hungry they would hit the spot. Even after several long days of lots of exertion in cold rain and sleeping in a only slightly warmer/drier tent, I still preferred cold plain instant oatmeal to these pork rinds.So dog treats? I gave one to my dog (a rescue Great Dane with an anxiety disorder). He tried to eat it and promptly tried to spit it out. It ended up stuck on his tongue and resulted in him frantically hopping around trying to get away from it. You read that right - not only would the dog not eat them, he fought to get it out of his mouth.So I tried feeding them to my friend's dog (a rescued street dog from Mexico City who currently suffers from senile dementia that often expresses itself as extreme food motivation). She too tried to spit it out. When offered a second pork rind, she backed away. I have NEVER seen this dog turn down anything resembling food, and she ran from these pork rinds.As a last resort, I gave them to my colleagues at ski patrol. These young adults who do hard physical labor in the cold for little money. These kids often stop by the local gas stations at closing-time to get the soon-to-be discarded meat that has been on heat rollers all day. They tried. They really tried. They even tried dipping them in various toppings (quesso dip, Heluva Good onion dip, hot salsa). These pork rinds are the only food they have turned down/thrown out. As one kid put it "I did not know anything made of pork could be so... yuck."
