In this episode of Healthy AF (Healthy After 50), Zane Griggs chats with Steven Arena, founder of MASA Chips. Steven shares the origins of MASA, born from a desire to create a simple, seed-oil-free chip that prioritizes taste and quality over everything else.

What Makes MASA Chips Different?

MASA Chips stand out because of their commitment to simplicity. As Steven highlights, they are made from just three ingredients: corn, water, and salt. Most importantly, they are completely free of harmful seed oils, which are found in almost all other chips and processed snacks on the market.

Why Avoid Seed Oils?

While MASA Chips are a healthier alternative, Steven and Zane agree that their main priority is that people enjoy the chips. Steven emphasizes that they aren't trying to educate the masses on the dangers of seed oils, although they recognize the harm these oils can cause. If consumers want a cleaner snack without worrying about health science, MASA Chips offer exactly that.

Creating a Snack People Love

Steven shares how MASA’s mission is to create a snack that tastes incredible, regardless of whether people care about the health aspect. MASA Chips are about providing something delicious that happens to be made without the oils that contribute to inflammation and other health issues.
