Chicharron

This is not the healthiest of foods, given that it is deep fried and usually made from pork skin with the underlying meat. Depending on what country we're talking about, it is prepared in a variety of ways, but usually with thick pork skins as the basic ingredient. Chicharron literally means that which has been burned to a crisp so you can expect this to be deep fried, sort of like blackened chicken. I have seldom eaten it - maybe once or twice and that's more than enough.
