The PigOut® Pigless® Pork Rinds are a high-quality pork-free product option for consumers who are looking to avoid their intake of animal ingredients. The plant-based snack is positioned as a better-for-you indulgence that is formulated with healthy ingredients that will help to satisfy a person's hunger instead of enabling them to continuously munch. This is thanks to 25 grams of [plant-based protein per pack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/utopea-ah), while the recipe is also free from soy, gluten, cholesterol, GMOs and trans fats.

The PigOut® Pigless® Pork Rinds come in four flavor options including Original, Texas BBQ, Hella Hot and Nacho Cheese, which all highlight a [pork-like flavor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pork-scratching-potato-crisps). The products are all certified [Kosher](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manischewitz-matzo) and vegan to make them as applicable as possible for consumers who adhere to specialty diets.
