About Pork skins

Pork skins, also known as pork rinds, are made from the cooked and fried skin of pigs. A popular snack originating in Southern and Latin American cuisines, they are enjoyed worldwide for their light, crispy texture and savory flavor. Pork skins are typically seasoned with salt or spices and contain high amounts of protein and zero carbohydrates, making them a favored low-carb option in diets like keto. They are rich in monounsaturated fats but also contain saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Pork skins are calorie-dense and lack essential vitamins or minerals, so they are best enjoyed as an occasional treat rather than a staple food.
