The problem with pork rinds

Posted
comment_9575

The problem i find is they are made with vegetable oils and probably worse than that.

also i do not see pork rinds sold at my grocery stores, I only see them at a Chinatown grocery which to be honest a lot of their products contain bad additives

i need a better source 

i saw someone here mention the brand Mac’s pork rinds. But at their website they do not mention what oils are used in the ingredients 

how can I find the most all natural pork rinds?

      Here's an excel spreadsheet attached to this message listing the numerous brands that fry their pork rinds in their own pork fat/lard. This is actually the most common way. Only a few brands use seed

    I have done the research and contacted the company and Mac’s are fried in their own fat. They are clean.
    There are others that are as well but I can’t remember which ones. Since Mac’s are readily available to me locally, I have not needed to look further.

    I guess pork rinds and cracklins are pretty much a southern thing so they may be harder to find up north.

    I make my own bacon and sometimes I’ll buy a whole pork belly slab with the skin still attached. I’ll trim that skin off and make my own cracklins. Good stuff.

    • "World Carnivore Month" January Challenge!

      Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following... 1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt. 2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.  3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.  In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice. IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.  We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk.  Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
