Whisps! At my local grocery. W00T!

Not as cost-effective as Costco, but handier. I hope they pick up other flavors. :grin:

Yeah - they’re usually pricey at that size.

Where I live, pork rinds just aren’t available in big stores–only in convenience stores, and even then they’re hard to find. I’m fortunate in that our local general store (on a small island, population 1000) carries pork rinds.

I have yet to see Whisps anywhere, but I’ll keep my eyes open!

Cheese Crisps are easy to make in the microwave

I can turn a 12-slice package of cheese into cheese crisps in less than 10 minutes (4 batches; 3 slices per batch; 2 minutes per batch). You can use silicon cupcake molds, but I find the 3-well and 6-well silicon trays so much easier to load and unload. I’ve created crisps with sliced cheeses, sliced off from blocks, and shredded. They all work.

But you really need the silicon molds to keep their shape and texture consistent. I used to make them on parchment paper or a silicon mat, and they tend to spread all over when the cheese gets molten.
