Default Pork Rinds, good better and THE BEST

Just wondering what brands and flavours of Pork Rinds YOU are eating. They only sell Mission brand at my Vons (conveniently located in the beer aisle so funny) Im not fond of the regular flavor but the Picante Flavor is good. Its nice to have a few "chips" with lunch. My 3 oz bag for 4 bux usually lasts about a week and half....are there any other flavours out there....where do you get yours and do any of you buy online?

Thank you for any suggestions

We buy Mac's Salt & Pepper (my favorite), Baken-ets Plain and the Hot 'N Spicy (DH's favorite, though he's been liking my Salt & Pepper ones now, too)
I like the plain for sweet things sometimes (sprinkled with cinnamon Splenda) and like the Salt & Pepper for breading. We "snack" on any of them.
It dawns on me now that we haven't tried using the Hot 'N Spicy as breading. Perhaps we'll try that one day soon.

Hey? I saw over on another site where someone was touting Wallace's salsa and sour cream pork rinds as the "best ever"...
and "Makes your tongue slap your brains out... "
So, while I can't vouch for them.. maybe if you see those, they certainly sound good!
I'll be looking for them for sure! LOL

I rarely snack on them but I do buy them and use them for breading. I buys the cheapos at Aldis and I buy the plain and the hot & spicy. After cooking the hot & spicy loose their kick and just give it a little flavor.

Wow... $4 for 3 oz is pretty pricey. They have them for about $1.50 at Walmart.

I haven't had pork rinds in a while, sometimes they seem a bit stale to me. But I recently tried Pork Clouds, they were very good (pricey though, and they come in small bags). Made with olive oil and spices, can find them online.

The only kind of pork rinds I'll eat are hot & spicy... the brand name doesn't matter to me.
