Anyone have these as a snack? It says 8gr protein for 1/2 oz. I was away this weekend and my husband got a bag he felt bad that he and the kids were having snacks and I was not. It didn't bother me but he was feeling bad, lol. I had a few of them but I do not like to eat when I am not supposed to I do not want to get into any bad habit's. Thanks

I have them as a snack on occasion. I basiclly live by the motto have everything in moderation. There is no off limits food for me. Most times, I'm satisfied after 5-6 bites. Makes it rather hard for me to really overeat anything at this time. I get full so quickly.

I agree with Marie about everything in moderation. I tried a donut today....it made me dump. I was able to taste it and remind myself that I have a tool and to use it wisely. I will taste "bad" food and usually a few bites will satisfy me and make me feel normal.

Thank you Marie and Dale. It was nice to have a few and not feel guilty about it. They are not something I would have on a regular basis.

Ah yes, man cannot live on pork rinds alone. The way I plan my day is to make sure I get enough of what my body needs first. So many grams protein, fruits/veggies, fiber, water, etc. Then, with what's leftover, I allow myself a little treat here and there. Sometimes, I go a whole week or two just eating healthy things and splurge on something for special occasions. Like wedding cake. I must have an itsy bit. How many weddings does the average person attend to worry about how much "bad" food you can have without feeling guilty
