5.0 out of 5 stars NOM NOM NOM
It's about time I actually took the time to review a product that I purchased. I'm terrible at this because it takes me so long to decide if I like something and by that time I've lost interest in providing feedback. Considering I've been ordering these pork rinds for over a year now, I think it's time to share my experiences.Ok, so here's my story: A year and a half ago I started a low carb/high protein diet. I cut out most junk food and fast food and started replacing my normal foods with high protein alternatives. A year and a half later, I'm at goal weight and down 110 pounds! And yes, these guys helped. Here pig pig pig sooooo whee!To be completely technical, the chain of protein found in pork rinds is incomplete and I did not count them in my daily protein totals. Regardless, in my search for a snacking alternative, pork rinds kept popping up (pun intended). I, who had never had pork rinds before, said to myself "Self (that's what I call myself), how could Funyuns be healthy?" Well let me tell you folks, these ain't Funyuns.These magical nuggets are low carb, low calorie, crunchy fabulousness. If I'm ever craving something sweet, I just pop 8ish of these on a plate in the microwave for two minutes and drop the warm pig poofies into a plastic bag full of cinnamon and low calorie sweetener (probably cancer causing, but we shall see), toss, and nom nom nom. Perfect balance of salty, sweet, and crunch.The only problem I have encountered thus far is that it tends to super heat the microwave. My old micowave couldn't handle more than one batch at a time without a cool off period in between. Probably just me, who knows.Anyway, I'm rambling on. Probably a good thing that I rarely get around to reviewing products. These are good. I searched the internet for the best quality pork rinds before settling on these and I am not disappointed. Yes, your kitchen will smell like pork, but if you don't like the smell of bacon, there is no help for you anyway. Price is good, quality is excellent, taste is nummy, and these get five stars for helping me to lose weight (mostly) painlessly.
5.0 out of 5 stars Air frier is the best/most consistent cook for these
Flavor and aroma is out of this world. Smells like a load of cured pork and after cooking they retain a porky goodness that store-bought rinds just don't have. Ingredients are a HUGE plus (pork and salt) due to strict lifestyle.I tried 3 cooking methods: oven, air frier, and microwave. Microwave was the most tedious. Microwave for a bit, take out the cooked ones, microwave, repeat until all were puffed. Oven took the longest and you have to do similar because of size differences in nuggets, some nuggets taking as long as 30 minutes to finally puff up. Air frier is hands down the best, fastest, and most consistent way. 10 mins at 400⁰f and they are all always perfectly puffed.Will be buying a 10lb bag when I run out of these
4.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic quality but the price per count info is wrong
These are fantastic quality pork rinds made fresh whenever you want them. They puff up really nicely in the microwave. Two minutes is all it takes. I did a test batch of 1 oz. The taste and texture of these pork rinds are definitely superior to the bagged ones you find in the grocery store--HOWEVER, whether or not it's the better value is up to you. These pork rinds are much more expensive. The price per pound information (which is what I went by when I decided to try these) is WRONG. That $6.99 figure they give is right--only IF the bag was 5 pounds. It is not. It is only a 2.5 pound bag, so that means that it is actually $13.98 per pound. Per oz, that is 88 cents. I can buy a small 2.5 oz bag of pork rinds for around $1.25 at my grocery store. That works out to be around 40 cents an ounce! So it's a trade off. This is much better quality, but whether or not it's worth twice as much as what you'd pay for at the grocery store is up to you. Somebody needs to correct that pricing information on the page.
5.0 out of 5 stars Pork Rinds
Take a 1/4 c and put evenly on a microwave plate and put whatever seasoning you want on it , I love it. It's worth a tryPreparing is easy, quality , size , freshness and value of money is worth it. I believe.
5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend!
Delicious and quick and easy to make.
5.0 out of 5 stars Better than I expected!
I started a carnivore diet recently and was missing something with more texture. I found this on Bolo while looking for pork rinds. I was a bit skeptical of microwaving them myself but these worked perfectly. Photo is a 1/4 cup microwaved for 2min as directed. Taste great too and way more economical than purchasing prepopped ones.
1.0 out of 5 stars Stale and Tasteless
my viewpoint is personal. They did not compare to the North Carolina Gold Nugget, which I previously purchased and enjoyed. Their taste was like paper, no flavor, just stale.
3.0 out of 5 stars Turns out meh in the microwave, but pretty good in a deep fryer.
I decided to buy this to try and see how easy it is to make home made pork rinds. I followed the microwave instructions and pretty much none of them were cooked like a normal pork rind. Because of that, to get them to puff up like a normal pork rind, it took almost twice as long, and even then, some of the pieces did not puff up at all. Because of the extra time (I'm assuming) it was pretty hard and a lot of bits that weren't puffed were just like biting into stone. It did still taste great, but like I said, i'd only have 1 or 2 puffed out of the 20 or so pieces put in with the suggested time.Since the microwave turned out bad, I tried it in the deep fryer and that was MUCH better as far as puffiness and the flavor was a bit better IMO as well. Some pieces did not cook as expected though and were still very tough and stone like. I'm not sure if this is the way all of the pork rind pellets will be, since this is my first time buying, but it's decent so far, just an annoyance. It could be bad for someone with bad/going bad teeth though.All of this may be my inexperience though, so take it with a grain of salt. I will possibly come bad and edit the review or do another if it gets better the more I cook them.
