  • Pork rinds

    Are they a no-no now? I recall making a tasty baked chicken that called for these, but from reading some posts, sounds like people are avoiding them?

    They make you retain water as theyre so salty, not a no-no but expect a lil gain on the scales the next day, which of course will come away with the water.

      Re: Pork rinds

      Pork rinds that have no added sugar (listed in the ingredients) are OK, but as Emma said you might experience some 'water retention' if you eat them in quantity.

      As a coating for meat I imagine you wouldnt have problems.
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

        I love pork rinds but end up eating too many and they are high in salt. But last week I ate a whole bag and lost three pounds...maybe it was because I was travelling and didn't have access to a lot of other foods.

          That's what I fear, that I'll eat them and not just use them for cooking!
          I'm a shake 'n bake fan, no gourmet chef here. hah, and the spicy rinds make chicken taste just like S'nB.
