Ranking Pork King Good’s Savory Pork Rinds | Bariatric Friendly Snack Review

Lisa Kidd

Finding satisfying crunchy snacks after bariatric surgery can sometimes feel impossible — especially when you’re trying to stay low carb and prioritize protein. That’s why I was excited to try the savory flavored pork rinds from Pork King Good for another taste testing video on Bariatric Living with Lisa.

And let me tell you… these did NOT disappoint!

I tried several savory flavors and ranked them from my favorite to my least favorite. Every flavor had great crunch and bold seasoning, but a few really stood out as absolute winners for me.

One thing I love about pork rinds is that they’re naturally low carb and high in protein, making them a great option for bariatric and keto lifestyles. They’re also perfect when you want something salty and crunchy without reaching for potato chips.

If you’ve been searching for new bariatric-friendly snack ideas, these are definitely worth trying.

Lisa Kidd

If you told me I’d be eating dessert-flavored pork rinds, I probably wouldn’t have believed you… but here we are—and I’m glad I gave them a shot!

I recently found Pork King Good’s sweet-flavored pork rinds on TikTok and decided to do a full taste test for my Bariatric Living with Lisa channel.

The Flavors I Tried:

  • Cinnamon Churr-Whoa
  • Old Timey Butterscotch
  • Appley Cinnamon
  • Birthday Cake

My Honest Thoughts:

I went into this expecting them to be a little… questionable. But surprisingly, they were all really good! Each one had that crunchy, salty pork rind base with a sweet twist that actually worked.

The Winner 🏆

Old Timey Butterscotch was hands-down my favorite. The flavor was rich, sweet, and honestly felt like a treat—without the sugar overload.

Are They Worth It?

If you’re following a bariatric, low-carb, or keto lifestyle and struggle with sweet cravings, these are a great alternative. You’re getting protein in while still satisfying that dessert craving—which is a win in my book.

Final Verdict:

✔️ High protein
✔️ Low carb friendly
✔️ Surprisingly delicious

Would I buy them again? Absolutely—especially the butterscotch!

Butter-Fried Halloumi Cheese Fries (Bariatric-Friendly High-Protein Snack)

Lisa Kidd

If you’re in the bariatric stage where you’re tired of protein shakes and need something savory, this snack is a must.

Halloumi cheese fries are one of my favorite quick, satisfying, high-protein options when I want something warm, salty, and indulgent — without going off track.

I cooked these in a skillet with butter and the flavor is next-level. The outside gets beautifully golden and crispy while the inside stays soft and chewy. It honestly feels like a treat.

You can also make these in the air fryer if you want a lighter option, and they still turn out delicious.

Why this works for bariatric life:

  • High in protein
  • Low in carbs
  • Very filling in small portions
  • Helps curb cravings for fried foods
  • Quick and simple

This is one of those snacks that reminds you bariatric eating doesn’t have to be boring — it can still be comforting, flavorful, and satisfying.

Protein first. Flavor Always.
