Rudolph Foods, the world’s largest manufacturer of pork rinds, has announced its Fourth Annual Pork Rind Appreciation Day campaign. Celebrated on the biggest football day of the year, the first Sunday of February, Pork Rind Appreciation Day was cemented as an annual event after the pork rind leader secured hundreds of thousands of consumer votes, as well as political designations, in 2010. Matched each year with charitable support, Rudolph Foods will again support Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund, Inc., a nonprofit organization that provides medical and financial assistance to former National Football League (NFL) players in dire need. In response, Rudolph Foods is teaming up with Ickey Woods to raise money to support the Gridiron Greats through the annual Pork Rind Appreciation Day campaign.
Between now and the big game, $.10 of the purchase of all Rudolph Foods branded products, including Rudolph’s, Southern Recipe, Pepe’s Snacks and Lee’s Pig Skins will support the organization’s assistance fund (up to $15,000).
