Pork rinds

Near the back of the Atkins book I read, he mentions that pork rinds are a good snack to divert yourself away from potato chips and the like. This weekend I bought a pack; everyone in my family was grossed out and nobody would even try one.

I now know why they're a good diversion: it's negative reinforcement, just like the aversion treatment in A Clockwork Orange. I'm gonna tough it out and finish the bag over the next couple of days, but I won't be happy about it.

There's an interesting thread on this over at http://www.lowcarbfriends.com/bbs/atkins-72/490423-pork-rinds-atkins-72-a.html although at times it astounds me. Pork rinds and cream cheese???
