Default pork rinds and protien

hey guys.

i have a question. it seems like the bulk of the calories in pork rinds actually come from protien. the brand i have has:

4g fat
0g carb
6g protien

per serving. however, there's a little disclaimer in small print next to the protien gram count on the nutrition label that says "Not a significant source of protien." erm, 6g seems well, not INsignificant! what gives? is there some sort of amino acid missing, making the protien "incomplete?" if that's the case, why don't the protien grams on like, kidney bean cans or pita bread packages say that? or is it so pork rind manufacturers don't go creating slogans like "pork rinds: it's what's for dinner?"

thanks guys.
yerpal,
