I can't believe it has taken me this long to write a review about my beloved Pork Clouds! Thank goodness I didn't forget, because you NEED these in your life.

I have been munching on these for quite a while now and it's quite possible I have become a Pork Cloud addict. I have made chicharones/fried pork skins at home a few times and even though they are delicious they are very time consuming. When I found these I was excited but skeptical... could they possibly be as good as homemade? Yes, yes they can.

Since starting a paleo lifestyle, it is very rare that I ever want or need a snack, but when I do these are what I reach for. They are the perfect blend of salty and crunchy, and best of all they are made with all natural ingredients and have zero grams of total carbs per serving! You get the same satisfaction of pretzels or popcorn but in a delicious cloud of crispy pork goodness.

If you are paleo and happen to live in (or are visiting) San Diego, I highly suggest you check out Candelas On The Bay. Even if you are not paleo you will want to visit this place because it has a great menu and amazing views. You can sit outside on the deck and enjoy the sunshine, or sit inside by the huge glass window and do some people watching. Either way it is a great location with awesome food (and great happy hour prices for those that want an adult beverage).

I was told that Candelas had a paleo and gluten-free menu, but I was amazed at how many options they had that were already paleo, or could be made paleo upon request. Ceviches, salads, appetizers and entrees....I had a hard time deciding what to pick! We settled on an appetizer called the Estructura de Aguacate (top right in the photo) which was a tower of avocado, scallops, shrimp, crab, parsley, lime, tomato and onion and served with basil and mango vinaigrettes. It was refreshing and very tasty.
