About BBQ PORK RINDS CHICHARRONES, BBQ
Meijer BBQ Pork Rinds (Chicharrones) are a private-label store-brand fried pork skin snack product from Meijer, Inc., the Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. Pork rinds, also known as chicharrones in Latin American culinary tradition, are produced by frying or baking dehydrated pork skin until puffed and crisp. The base ingredient is fried pork skins, which are then seasoned with salt, sugar, spices, torula yeast (a flavor-enhancing inactive yeast), monosodium glutamate (MSG), tomato powder, maltodextrin, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika extract (for color), and natural smoke flavor.
Per 100 grams, this product provides 571 calories, 50 grams of protein, 35.71 grams of fat, and 7.14 grams of carbohydrates with zero fiber. The nutritional profile is characterized by extremely high protein and fat content and very low carbohydrates, making this product popular among low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diet adherents. The protein content of 50 grams per 100 grams is among the highest of any commercially produced snack food, derived entirely from the collagen and other proteins in rendered pork skin. The fat is predominantly saturated fat from pork skin.
This product contains pork and is therefore not suitable for those following halal, kosher, vegetarian, or vegan diets. It does not contain wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, or tree nuts based on the ingredient declaration, making it suitable for gluten-free and dairy-free diets. Monosodium glutamate is declared. The high calorie density (571 kcal per 100 g) reflects the very low moisture and high fat content typical of fried snack products. Sugar and maltodextrin contribute minor carbohydrates to the seasoning system.
