Openshaws Big Bag Pork Scratchings 8 x 75g

Such a shame! The quality of the scratching themselves seems quite good, good amount of skin, fat and flesh. But when something tastes that salty you know something is wrong.1) After some googling, the "Flavour Enhance E621", it turns our E621 is MSG. Why lie?2) Also, product description lies, saying "Speciality No Added Sugar" - But it has Dextrose which is literally added sugar!3) Finally, nutrition facts here says "Carbohydrate 0.1 Grams", but on the bag I look and it says Carbohydrates 3.9g, of which sugars 0.1.Why? Why can't you just add salt and pepper and leave it at that? So unnecessary! And if you're so confident of your choice of ingredients, why lie about it?

I love pork scratchings and do buy various bags, both from my local market, butchers and off Amazon in the past and all OK.Tried these and ummmm. Don't bother.They do taste stale and not fresh but they are so salty.They should be salty.... But these have gone overboard.Wouldn't bother again

Normally all the family love pork scratchings, but it was a unanimous "disgusting" vote for the flavour of the single bag opened and the rest had to be given away they were so bad. The crunchy bit was just edible, but there was also lots of non-crunchy bits that were simply so horrible they outweighed all else.

Great scratching if you like lots of hairs sticking out of random pieces.I brought for a 100 mile National Trail walk and ended up throwing all of them away, as I didn't get hungry enough to sort through all of the pig hairs :-( Horrible, horrible waste of money and had to buy replacement calories on-route.

Very nice tasting scratching, main complaint is the amount of salt near the bottom of the bag, nice big bags that have a good variety of sizes.At £10 this is great value for money and will be my go to whenever the urge arises for some proky bois.

These 'scratchings' are not scratchings. They are cooked rinds. Nothing wrong with that as they are very tasty. It seems folk don't know what proper pork scratchings are. You can get them, and they are the bits that are left over after cooking pork, and rendering down fat into lard. Those are scratchings! These by Openshaws are still nice and well worth the money. Just be careful how hard you crunch if you value your fillings!!!

The first time I bought these I would have given them a 5 star review. This is my second purchase and they were down right inedible. Some chunks were too big to even consider eating. Many of them were hairy and there might have been some mix up on the production line for this batch, rather than them being seasoned with salt they appeared to be seasoned with chilli and cayenne pepper. One bite left my mouth burning for an hour after. Complained directly to Openshaws due to a potential danger with food allergies.

Firstly I love pork scratchings and have never tasted before a brand I didn't like, these however are vile, they taste like your chips do when your oil gets old in the fryer, however rather than be changed this oil has been used again and again and produced these abominations. Seriously you must be a lazy manufacturer to not even be bothered to make pork scratchings well. Disgusting and I can't even return them, in the bin with them and I pity the rats that find them.
