Pork King Good's White Cheddar was the flavor that started everything in 2018 — the one that turned a scrappy Milwaukee upstart into one of The Porkie Company of Wisconsin's biggest accounts, and eventually put the keys to that 74-year-old manufacturer in the founder's hands. Every rind still comes out of the same fryers, cooked in the company's own rendered pork fat and finished with real cheddar cheese instead of cheese-flavored dust, for a lick-your-fingers snap with 0 grams of total carbohydrates per serving.

  • A dense, loud crunch built for lunchboxes, gym bags, road trips, and the cheese board next to the good crackers
  • Fried in Pork King Good's own rendered pork fat and seasoned with actual cheddar cheese, not cheese powder — a recipe carried forward from generations of Wisconsin pork rind craft
  • Woman-owned and gluten-free, with 0g carbs per serving that fits keto and paleo eating without asterisks
Current Stock:
White Cheddar wasn't just Pork King Good's first pork rind flavor - it's the one that built the company. Launched in 2018 out of Milwaukee, Pork King Good grew from a single inventive flavor lineup into one of its manufacturer's largest customers, then bought that 74-year-old pork rind operation outright in May 2022, becoming the only woman-owned pork rind manufacturing business in the United States.

This 1.75 oz bag is fried in Pork King Good's own rendered pork fat, then dusted with real cheddar cheese, whey, and buttermilk for the familiar tang of white cheddar popcorn - with 0 grams of total carbohydrates per serving instead of the starch-based crunch of a corn chip or cracker.

Keep a bag in the pantry for a fast protein-forward snack alongside guacamole, hot sauce, or a cold beer, or set a bowl out next to the cheese board - the crunch and cheddar tang hold up next to charcuterie as easily as they do on their own.

Keto-friendly, paleo-friendly, and gluten-free by nature of what a pork rind is, this low-carb snack stores at room temperature - no refrigeration needed until opened, and best enjoyed within the printed best-by date for peak crunch.

Ingredients: Pork Rinds (Cooked in Pork Fat), Cheddar Cheese (Milk, Salt, Cheese Cultures, Enzymes), Whey, Buttermilk, Natural Flavor, Salt, Disodium Phosphate, and Silicon Dioxide (Added as an Anti-Caking Agent).
This product contains milk ingredients.




Common Questions

How does the nutrition profile compare to a corn tortilla chip or a cracker?
A typical 1 oz corn tortilla chip serving carries roughly 18 grams of carbohydrate and 2 grams of protein, with most of that crunch coming from milled corn starch. This white cheddar pork rind serving runs 0 grams of total carbohydrate and delivers protein in the double digits per serving, because the crunch comes from rendered pork skin and collagen protein rather than starch. The fat in the rind is pork fat picked up during frying, not the seed oils used in most chip lines, and there's no flour, corn, or potato filler diluting the protein content. For someone counting net carbs or watching blood sugar response, swapping a starch-based chip for a fried pork rind removes the glycemic load entirely while adding protein instead of subtracting it.

What's actually happening nutritionally when pork skin is fried instead of baked or boiled?
Frying in rendered pork fat converts the collagen-dense skin into a puffed, crisp structure while the fat itself is largely monounsaturated oleic acid, the same fatty acid prevalent in olive oil. The process doesn't introduce starch or sugar at any stage, which is why the finished rind holds at 0 grams of carbohydrate per serving regardless of how it's cooked. Disodium phosphate in the cheddar seasoning is a food-grade emulsifier that helps the whey and buttermilk solids adhere evenly to the fried surface rather than clumping, and silicon dioxide keeps that seasoning powder free-flowing in the bag. None of these are structural or caloric additions — they're functional aids for getting an even cheese coating on a fried protein snack.

Does this fit a keto, paleo, or carnivore way of eating?
Yes, on macros alone: 0 grams of total carbohydrate per serving means it doesn't touch a daily carb allowance on keto, and the protein-to-fat ratio skews toward what carnivore eaters look for in a packaged snack. Paleo eaters generally exclude dairy, and this product does carry dairy in the cheddar cheese, whey, and buttermilk coating, so a strict paleo protocol should read the ingredient list before treating it as compliant — the pork rind base itself is paleo by nature, the seasoning is where dairy enters. For keto specifically, the certifications printed on the bag reflect third-party keto and low-carb standards, not just a marketing claim. Anyone tracking macros closely should still check the nutrition panel on their specific bag, since seasoning weight can shift protein and fat slightly from batch to batch.

How can I use these beyond eating them straight from the bag?
White cheddar pork rinds hold their crunch well as a stand-in for crackers on a cheese board, next to soft cheeses, charcuterie, or pickled vegetables where a starch-based cracker would otherwise carry the plate. They work as a garnish scattered whole over chili, a loaded baked potato, or a taco bowl in place of a tortilla strip, adding crunch and protein without adding carbohydrate. Pair them with guacamole or a thick queso dip in place of tortilla chips for a lower-carb version of a chip-and-dip spread. Because the cheddar coating is already seasoned, no additional salt or cheese is needed if used as a topping — taste the dish before adjusting seasoning.

How do I know the keto, paleo, and gluten-free claims on this bag are real?
The certifications listed — Gluten-Free, Keto, Keto Friendly, Paleo, Low Carb, and No Artificial Ingredients, Colors or Flavors — come from third-party review of the finished product's ingredient deck and manufacturing process, not just a label printed in-house. The ingredient list itself is short enough to verify by eye: pork rinds, real cheddar cheese, whey, buttermilk, natural flavor, salt, and two functional additives, with no wheat, gluten grains, or added sugar anywhere in it. Because Pork King Good owns its own pork rind manufacturing facility, the same one that's been frying pork rinds in Milwaukee for over 70 years, the company controls the frying medium and seasoning application directly rather than outsourcing to a third-party co-packer with a different fryer oil or process.

What does it mean that this is made by the only woman-owned pork rind manufacturer in the U.S.?
Pork King Good's founder built the company on this exact white cheddar flavor starting in 2018, then in May 2022 bought the 74-year-old pork rind manufacturing operation in Milwaukee that had been producing the company's rinds all along — making it, at the time, the only pork rind manufacturing business in the country under woman ownership. That transition matters for a buyer because it means the recipe, the fryer, and the seasoning line are all controlled in-house rather than licensed out to a co-packer, so any change to the frying fat, cheddar sourcing, or seasoning ratio happens under the same roof that built the brand. The Woman-Owned certification on the bag reflects that ownership structure directly, not a marketing partnership.
