Since they r high in sodium do they make u retain fluids. they r 0 carbs 9 proteins but I assume they r fried. They really satisfy a snack plus make U drink more water. I had my sleeve in Mexico do I don't hsvr a Nut to ask. Just wondered ig anyone else have eaten them since being sleeved.

You COULD eat them, but I assume they're fatty and salty as hell, like chips.

Should you eat them? My guess is no.

Chips r carbs. Pork rinds r protein but I am guessing they r fried. That's probably the no reason.

I do splurge and have them on occasions. It's important to know that the protein in pork rinds is not a significant source of protein tho. once in awhile wont hurt u, I just wouldnt eat them everyday.

Pork rinds.

Salty, fried goodness, but too rich for me. Sleeve definitely didn't like them.

What I've been doing for a crunchy, savory snack is making kale chips myself. You can find lots of recipes online and control the sodium yourself. It's a great fall vegetable, just fyi, packed with Vitamin C and other goodness.

Hope that helps ...

Pork rinds...YUM!! Yes you can have pork rinds if your sleeve tolerates them. They are a good snack and just fine if you don't have to watch your sodium intake due to heart problems, etc. And they are fried, but you do need some fat intake to help you absorb your fat-soluable vitamins. Moderation in everything should be your general rule for living with your sleeve. Also bear in mind that although pork rinds are all protein, no carbs, there is not a lot of nutrition in them either.

I like them but they are a slider food for me

Sent from my SPH-D700 using VST

I love them and thy are definitely a slider for me too. My NUT says thy are OK.

Nnonononono!!!! This is my own oersonal demon! Don't tell me they're ok!!! Im trying this everything in moderation thing but unless I'm on my deathbed I ain't goin anywhere near the deep-fried salted skin of a pig! Just no for me... No... Ok who am I kidding ~ hi I'm Beth & I'm a food junkie~ please don't trust me around salted meat products of any kind!!!
