YEAH! I tried some spicy pork rinds and they are GREAT.... and they help with getting enough water down - hee hee. They are so spicy that I have to have several cups of water along with them!!

Thanks!

You may want to double check the label on the spicy pork rinds.... I bought a bag the other day, was in heaven while I was munching away....then about 20 mins later, I had a headache and stomach ache - looked at the bag, and it was loaded with sugar (3 different types). I don't think all spicy brands have sugar, but check it out.... Just a thought!

I'd be lost without my Pork Rinds...they satisfy my crunch need and they are filling (I think they must expand in your stomach?) You just have to watch how much you eat.....I eat about 1/2 to 1 cup of these a day dipped in sourcream and/or Salsa

We have them at our local WalMart SuperCenter in the snack aisle.

Approx $3.50 (US) for 6 packages (9.75 oz total).

They nuke up nice and light and lightly flavored for the most part.

Very nice!

Has anyone seen these microwave pork rinds in BC? I would love to try some...

You can order these online at www.rudolphfoods.com. Click on Web Store.
Hope this helps,

I plugged the nutrition info from my bag of piggie puffs into the hidden carbs calculator and it said they have about 5 carbs. Did I do something wrong?

Hard to tell if you did something wrong, you didn't say what information you plugged in...

Were they flavoured piggie puffs (they have carbs sometimes)?

What protein, fat, carb, etc., numbers did you put in?

I can't remember what the numbers were 'cause the bag is gone but they were the same numbers that someone posted earlier in this thread...the problem seemed to be that one time the result would be 5 grams and then another time, with the exact same numbers, the result would be a negative number, mean 0 I suppose...seemed to get two different results with the same entries.

Hi Folks,
Am new to this forum and to Low-Carbing (3 months and 20 #s) Would love to find pork rinds, but so far unsuccessful. Anybody seen them in the Edmonton/Sherwood Park area?

I'm in BC and I've found them at most grocery stores, although sometimes you have to look hard as they seem to blend in very well with all the other chips and they don't usually have as many bags of them out as compared to the other stuff. Also, if you have SuperStore I'm sure they'll have the no name brand that they have here - much better price and taste the same as the higher priced brand names...also the no names come in regular, bbq, and hot and spicey.

Good luck on your search.

Hi, Win609, and welcome.

Have you looked in the Local LowCarbing Support::Canada Forum? Also, see the Low-Carb Yellow Pages quicklink over on the right? Useful stuff.

You might also want to hie yourself over to the Introductions and Newbie's Questions forums.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the infor folks. Found them at Superstore! Just didn't have my eyes wide enough open I guess!

The food list says plain pork rinds are zero carbs, but the bag of plain rinds I bought says .6 carbs per serving and there are 7 servings in a bag or 4.2 carbs. A waffle recipe I tried also stated that there were zero carbs; so do I have to buy a particular brand? I really like the waffles but not 4 carbs worth, esp since I am on the induction diet.

check the ingredients, maybe there are hidden carbs or flavorings
