That has never been a concern for them in the past, why should it be one now ?
You can bet your bag of pork rinds that a majority of the stuff coming out right now will be mostly overprocessed and while it might adhere to the rule of low-carb, it will break the spirit of the rule.
Also remember there are currently no governement guidelines defining what low-carb is, so anything goes and anything will |
