Keto demand is blowing up!

All you have to do is perform a Mac-hack and you’re golden!

They have the ordering machines here too (Seattle area) but like @Ruina’s experience in China, they don’t have an option to exclude the bun so I don’t use them. It’s not exactly hard to order keto style at the counter though, and I’ve (fortunately?) never had the person taking the order react in any way.

Yes I’ve not found a problem special ordering around here and usually it is always right. I do sort of have an issue with whether to get the cheese because it’s American, not the best keto cheese choice.

I’ll give you the tip, WE don’t want him, we have enough egotistical pathological liars of our own :slight_smile:

#128

Let’s be real, outside of some nut jobs in this country, who does want him?? NO ONE!!!

That’s a rather arch remark . . . :rofl::rofl:

Finally! I was waiting for someone to acknowledge the subtle genius :slight_smile:

(Running from stupidity) #131

Well, this works pretty well. I think it does, anyway - I’m fasting so can’t test it, but it’s def frozen them.

#132

Oh, you were trying to be subtle?

(Heather~KWOL for life!) #133

I was thinking outloud @juice :grin:

(Running from stupidity) #134

I did science anyway!

Saw a lady at the grocery store yesterday with five bags of pork rinds and my eyes grew big. She was looking at me and she began to prepare herself for my judgemental comment when I asked “OMG…are you doing keto?” Once I said that her eyes lit up with excitement and we shared stories for like a minute or two. After she left, the cashier wanted in on the details of the diet. Vive la keto demand!

None of my usual grocery stores sell pork rinds! I have no idea where to buy them.

Some have relabeled to keep up with the trends and call them chicharrones instead of pork rinds.

Any Mexican/ Latin grocer would have them.

@AnnM I just saw you’re in the Bay Area. That’s home of the 4505 brand which are AWESOME

#138

Thanks. But there aren’t any Latino groceries in my neighborhood. Guess I will do without! :cry:

Oh, thanks! Guess I could have googled it. That’s what the internet is for, after all! So what is the difference between cracklins and pork rinds?

(TJ Borden) #141

As near as I can tell…

Pork rinds and chicharrones are the same thing. Cracklins usually have a fat layer and aren’t “puffy” like pork rinds. There’s a company out of LA that makes great cracklins that are in most convince stores in SoCal, but I don’t remember seeing them in NoCal.

Thanks, I will try the pork rinds and see how they are. :smiley:
