Cracklins vs. rinds


#1

ok so i get mac’s pork rnds basically because they are readily available and popular. However I recently got a bad of cracklins which are smaller and crunchier and have some sort of filling. what is filling?
tasty but afraid i may crack a tooth on some of these cracklins as some are pretty hard !!!
what everyones opinion and why ???

Its fat. Cracklings have more of the fat tissue. I use cracklings for snacking and pork rinds for Zorn Waffles.

Me too. They just taste better and seem so much fresher

Cracklins’ take me back to my childhood (northern girl from a southern family) but I’m afraid I’d chip a tooth if I ate them now…lol.

I, too, picked up Macs cracklin’s this week. I can’t get past the texture as I’ve only eaten rinds and the fat was off putting to me. I’ve had British cracklin’s (from a co-worker from the UK). I couldn’t get past the texture of those either.

Brenda ZORN came up with this recipe. Commonly called pork rinds waffles I refer to them as Zorn Waffles in homage to @Brenda
