Do you get paid a stipend every time you type the words "low fat" because you literally never make a post without those words. You do realize that low-fat eating doesn't mean low body fat percentage right?

P.S. This bacon lover just had a DEXA scan and has 19% body fat, so I think that throws your theory pretty much out the window.

I'm with FredBear. I like them but the calories seem to add up fast.

I can't eat them without needing something to drink. So dry!!!

They taste okay, but I have trouble getting past what they are (though as a meat eater, I'm not sure why I feel like some parts are okay and others are icky).

I've eaten pork rinds since I was a kid, so I like them. Being keto, they are a go-to snack for me. I love them with guacamole or sour cream dips, and they make an awesome coating replacement for breadcrumbs. There are tons of keto recipes that use crushed pork rinds.

It sounds bizarre, I know, but there is even a recipe to use them to make mock cinnamon toast cereal that gets rave review that the end result tastes nothing like pork rinds!

Oh, and pork rind nachos are DA BOMB!!

Just buy the ones at the store, much cheaper than the ones you linked to, and same nutritionally.
