Default Question about maltodextrin

I was just reading the ingredients in a bag of pork rinds I bought and noticed it has maltodextrin in it. After a little research I found maltodextrin is a corn starch which is digested like a sugar.

The nutritional information on the bag reads zero carbohydrates and zero sugar.

Is maltodextrin bad to consume? Is it worse than say the ranch dressing I eat that has 1g of sugar in nutritional info?

I read maltodextrin can spike blood sugars.

What are your thoughts? Should I skip eating these?
