Flavor, yes; pork, no
We’re not sure how good your Spanish is these days, but “chicharrones” typically suggests pork rinds.
This isn’t that. These are corn chicharrones, which you are free to think of in vaguely the same category as tofurkey at Thanksgiving or spaghetti and wheatballs.
You know what, we’re really not making a great case here.
Forget what we said about the tofurkey and the wheatballs. That stuff makes for a kind of sketchy meal, but it turns out that you can make perfectly credible pork-rind-adjacent snack foods without getting anywhere near a pig, and that’s what this is.
Think pork rind texture, nacho flavor, and no pigs at all.
They’re really tasty and satisfying, is the point. We think you’ll dig them, maybe.
Worth a try for fifteen bucks for sure, though.
