Thanks for the responses I was just curious if pork rinds really had no calories, as I assumed from reading threads on this forum that people were eating them liberally because they were NO carb And I really try to just get my carbs from healthy, nutrient enriched veggies/salad. I'm not perfect, but I do all right

MisJinx: I have NO intention of eating a whole bag of pork rinds, but thanks for the warning

suzanneM: if I do use them as a 'breading', and that's a BIG if, there won't be much on the one piece of meat that I'm eating I don't usually bread my meats, but at times I find that they are dried out and I think of breading it and Atkins suggests using pork rinds as a substitute

Pork rinds will be a hard one for me to swallow, as I HATE salt. Always have. I have never put salt on my food and always try to find things are don't taste salty

Pat S, thanks for the cooking lesson. I am always at a loss, and love that this board is SO helpful

Thanks again everyone
