Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Mac's Original Pork Rinds scores 80/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Mac's Original Pork Rinds lists 3 ingredients, starting with Fried Pork Skins, Salt and Natural Smoke Flavor. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 80/100 Mac's Original Pork Rinds sits in our top band, among the better chips & crisps we have scored. A higher-scoring option in chips & crisps is Late July Thin & Crispy Organic Blue Corn Tortilla Chips at 95/100.
