Summary

This product features a relatively clean ingredient list with fried pork skin, salt, coconut palm sugar, spices, and rendered pork fat. The use of rendered pork fat is a positive aspect, as it is a traditional cooking fat with no seed oils present. However, the product is processed, which limits its score potential, and the presence of added sugar in the form of coconut palm sugar slightly detracts from its overall healthiness.
