Baked pork rinds are a savory snack made from pork skin that is cleaned, seasoned, and oven-baked until crispy. Originating from traditional cuisines like Southern American and Latin American fare, pork rinds are a popular low-carb alternative to chips or crackers. They contain no carbohydrates, making them a go-to snack for those following keto or paleo diets. Rich in protein and containing some micronutrients such as collagen, pork rinds are also relatively low in calories compared to fried versions, as baking minimizes added oils. However, they can be high in sodium depending on preparation and seasoning, which may be a concern for those watching their salt intake. While they lack dietary fiber and vitamins, their crunch and protein content make them a satiating option for occasional indulgence. Moderation is key to incorporating baked pork rinds into a balanced diet.
