Yes, they're deep-fried pork rinds. Not exactly health food (although the lady giving out samples did say they do the best they can to get all the fat off...). But, they are like little pillows of melt-in-your-mouth crunchy goodness. In the East Bay, they are get-table at The Pasta Shop on 4th St. In the City, they're apparently findable in plenty of the usual suspects. And on twitter. And grilling up meats at the Ferry Plaza Market building sometimes. I have to find a way to get there. Until then, I have to get over to buy myself some more Chicharrones.
