Howard's Crispy Fried Chicken Skins - Chicharrones de Pollo, 1.5oz, Pack of 4

Didn't like them they taste bad

I ordered once before and they were great, so this time I ordered double the amount. Every single bag was in date but rancid! I noticed it smelled a bit strange and when I tasted it, there was definitely something wrong. The fried chicken skin was not crispy, it was spongy in texture and tasted really bad. I opened a second bag and it was the same, rancid, spongy, and stale. All 8 bags were bad. Now I can never get this brand again because I can’t trust it.

The first time I bought these in a 4 pack and the chips were crispy and large pieces. The second time I bought a 4 pack I had to watch the price daily to get them when they dropped to a reasonable price. That second order the pieces were all crushed down to small tid bits and were greasier than the first batch. All chicken skins have a greasy quality to them overall and definitely an acquired taste but the fluctuation in quality with this brand leaves me only buying when the price is low and praying it arrives not appearing as if the packages have been sat on by a large person. Its a shame. Better quality adherence and keeping the price the same would help this company. I hope they read the reviews.

Excellent fried chicken skins, just like Mom used to make when we had skins to fry! I mean they are the best keto snack in the world - and you just can't put them down - but kinda pricey. But I suppose it's a lot of work, (as I make them at home sometimes too) and then preserving it - and getting it inspected and USDA approved - then the packaging and marketing. But dang - I wish there was a price point with buying them in bulk, I'd buy more at a time! And more often! As it is I will only buy now and again.

These are supposed to be chips. They were delivered in a brown paper bag and smashed flat. There aren’t any pieces bigger than a cornflake. That’s just not right. Amazon did give me my money back for them, but I just want everyone to know that if you receive them, they don’t put them in a box and they’re crushed. The flavor is good.

Update: This review was dismissed. Not sure why, but I stand by my words. I would give it a zero if I could. This is, maybe, the nastiest stuff I've ever tried to consume. Tastes like gummy, old grease and is so tough you can barely chew it. I threw it all in the trash. A total waste of money.

I hadn't heard of chicken skins until about a month ago and I ordered some of a different brand. I was disappointed for a number of reasons, mainly the price, the quantity and the fact there were only a few bigger pieces and essentially a bunch of crumbs. But the taste was great!I decided to give these a try as they are much less expensive than the other ones. Some of the reviewers here said they were greasy, too salty and some pieces had feathers attached! I haven't found that to be the case so far. They weren't greasy at all and although I wouldn't mind if they were less salty, it's not so bad that it's even worth mentioning other than to contrast with some others' opinions of them; I didn't find the saltiness excessive by any stretch.The 1.5 oz bags cost less each than the 1 oz bags of the other brand, and the delivery was much faster so if I'm going to continue buying chicken skins, it'll probably be these.Chicken skins taste amazing to me. The crunch, the flavor and the expected meat-like taste are unique and hard to duplicate with other snack chips or pork skins. These taste as good as the others I mentioned and there's more of them so...no brainer there. I haven't eaten all four bags yet but the one I did finish had no feathers. There were a lot of small pieces, similar to the other brand, but I'm thinking that might be just the nature of these things. I deducted a star for that anyway because I'd rather have more of the larger pieces.Overall, I like them quite a lot and will probably keep buying them until I get 'burned out' on them or get tired of the price, even though they're less pricey than the other brand. If you've never tried chicken skins, I'd suggest giving them a try. With this brand, if you don't like them, at least you'd be out less money!

First time i tried this, a couple of years ago, i loved it.Since then I ordered some about a month ago and they tasted so stale, like rank butter. Will not buy this brand again. I may look into another brand, or not at all. The rank taste of these make me want to stop buying them altogether 🤢
