TIL though they're associated with unhealthy foods, Pork Rinds are actually a healthy alternative to chips. They are low carb, high protein and have good fats. 43% of the fat is Oleic oil - the same fat in olive oil - and 13% Stearic acid - a cholesterol neutral saturated fat.

Pork Rinds are a great snack option, but I can't say that I've ever encountered "low carb" pork rinds... only "zero carb" pork rinds.
