Appley Cinnamon Pork Rinds - 3 oz

Pork King Good calls this one 'dessert flavored pork rinds' and means it literally — cinnamon-spiced apple flavor built onto a pork rind base, made to satisfy the craving a slice of apple pie usually creates, minus most of the carbs.

Each 3 oz bag is cooked in the company's own rendered pork fat at its Wisconsin facility — the same 74-year-old plant Pork King Good acquired outright in 2022, making this the only pork rind manufacturing business in the country that's woman-owned.

Nutritionally, this bag is doing double duty: pork rinds are naturally zero-carb and high-protein, so the cinnamon-apple flavor rides on a base that keeps this bag at just 1 gram of carbs per serving even with the added Turbanato sugar and apple powder in the seasoning blend.

Eat it straight from the bag as an afternoon treat, pack it for the trail as a shelf-stable keto snack, or set a small bowl out next to coffee for something that tastes closer to a churro than a chip.

Keto-friendly, paleo-friendly, and gluten-free. Store in a cool, dry pantry; reseal the bag between servings to keep the crunch.

Ingredients: Pork Rinds (Cooked in Pork Fat), Turbanato Sugar, Siagon Cinnamon, Apple Powder (Apples, Calcium Stearate, Silicon Dioxide), and Apple Flavor (Arabic Gum, Natural Flavors, Silicon Dioxide).

Common Questions

How does the carb count compare to an actual apple pie or cinnamon churro?
A typical slice of apple pie runs 40-50 grams of carbs and a cinnamon churro can hit 30 grams or more, largely from the flour and added sugar in the dough. This bag is built on a pork rind base, which is essentially carbohydrate-free, so even with cinnamon and apple powder in the seasoning, net carbs stay close to zero per serving — a very different math than the pastry version of this flavor.

Why are pork rinds naturally zero-carb and high in protein?
Pork rinds are made from pork skin that's rendered and fried, which is mostly collagen protein and fat with no starch or sugar in the base ingredient. That composition is what makes them naturally carbohydrate-free before any flavoring is added, and it's also why they deliver more protein per serving than a typical starch-based chip.

Does the added sugar in the seasoning knock this out of keto range?
The Turbanato sugar and apple powder appear low enough in the ingredient list, and in low enough total quantity per serving, that they don't meaningfully raise the net carb count of the finished product. Pork King Good markets this line specifically as keto-friendly, and the zero-carb pork rind base is what keeps it there even with a dessert-style flavor profile.

Is this suitable for paleo or gluten-free diets?
Yes. The base ingredient is pork rinds cooked in pork fat, with cinnamon, apple powder, and apple flavor added — there's no grain, gluten, or legume ingredient anywhere in the formula, which is why Pork King Good lists this as both paleo-friendly and gluten-free.

What makes Pork King Good different from a private-label pork rind brand?
Pork King Good started as a customer of a 74-year-old Wisconsin pork rind manufacturer, grew into one of its largest accounts through its flavor lineup, and then bought the manufacturer outright in May 2022. That makes it the only woman-owned pork rind manufacturing business in the country, with direct control over the rendering, frying, and seasoning process rather than outsourcing to a third-party co-packer.

How should this be served or paired?
It works as a stand-alone snack straight from the bag, but the cinnamon-apple flavor profile also holds up well set out alongside coffee or tea, or packed as a shelf-stable trail snack when you want something sweet-leaning without the sugar crash of an actual pastry.

How should the bag be stored once opened?
Keep it in a cool, dry pantry and reseal the bag tightly between servings — like any fried snack, it's shelf-stable but loses crunch faster once exposed to air.
