    MASA Cobanero Tallow Tortilla Chips – Spicy, Seed Oil Free

    A Bold, Heritage Spice with Real Heat

    MASA Cobanero tortilla chips bring a deeper kind of spice — made with Cobanero chili, a rare pepper rooted in Mayan tradition, and fried in grass-fed beef tallow, never seed oils.

    If you’re searching for spicy tallow tortilla chips with real ingredients and no artificial shortcuts, this is a category of its own.

    Why MASA Cobanero Chips Are Different

    Most spicy chips rely on artificial flavor systems and chemical enhancers. MASA does the opposite — using real ingredients that deliver both flavor and integrity.

    ✔ Made with authentic Cobanero chili, not artificial spice blends
    No maltodextrin, no lactic acid, no “natural flavors” shortcuts
    No nutritional yeast (MSG alternative)
    ✔ Fried in grass-fed beef tallow, never seed oils

    This is a seed oil free spicy chip that delivers heat the way it’s meant to — clean and balanced.

    The Story Behind Cobanero Chili

    Cobanero chili isn’t just another spice — it’s part of a long culinary tradition.

    • A rare chili dating back to the Mayans
    • Grown in a single region of Guatemala
    • Cultivated using traditional farming methods

    It brings a unique flavor profile: earthy, warm, and layered heat — not just surface-level spice.

    Clean Ingredients That Matter

    Every ingredient serves a purpose:

    • Organic corn
    • Grass-fed beef tallow
    • Cobanero chili
    • Sea salt

    No fillers. No artificial enhancers. Just real food with real flavor.

    How They Taste

    Expect a balanced, savory heat — not overpowering, but deeply satisfying.

    • A rich, crisp texture
    • Warm spice that builds gradually
    • A clean finish without chemical aftertaste

    Perfect on their own — or as a base for nachos and spice-forward meals.

    Shipping details

    What is processing time?

    Processing time is the period between placing your order and the package being handed to the shipping carrier.

    Most orders are processed within 2–5 business days, Monday–Friday excluding holidays.

    During this time, your item may be picked, prepared, produced, finished, assembled, personalized, packed, or otherwise made ready for shipment.

    Shipping time does not include processing time. Carrier transit begins after processing is complete and the package has been accepted for shipment.

    Where does my order ship from?

    My American Goods® uses a hybrid fulfillment model.

    • Some products are stocked and shipped directly by My American Goods.
    • Other products ship directly from the independent American brand or maker.

    This allows us to offer a much broader selection of American-made products while supporting the independent businesses that make them.

    Why might my order arrive in multiple packages?

    Products in the same order may ship from different fulfillment locations.

    As a result, items may:

    • Ship on different days
    • Arrive in separate packages
    • Have different tracking numbers
    • Use different shipping carriers or services

    Receiving one package does not necessarily mean the rest of your order is missing.

    How are shipping rates calculated?

    Because products may ship from different makers and fulfillment locations, shipping rates can vary by product or brand.

    • Some products or brands qualify for free shipping above a specific threshold.
    • Other products may use flat-rate or carrier-calculated shipping.
    • Products shipping from separate locations may generate separate shipping charges.

    The applicable shipping cost is shown before your order is completed.

    When will I receive tracking?

    Tracking information is emailed once your item has been prepared and shipped.

    For handmade, made-to-order, pre-order, or specialty products, tracking may not be available until the applicable preparation or production period is complete.

    If the expected processing period for your item has passed and you have not received a shipping update, please contact us.

    Carrier delays & missing packages

    After a package has been accepted by USPS, UPS, FedEx, or another shipping carrier, transit may be affected by weather, holidays, peak-volume periods, transportation disruptions, or other carrier conditions outside our control.

    Shipping and delivery timelines are estimates unless expressly stated otherwise.

    If tracking shows Delivered but you cannot locate the package, check:

    • Household members
    • Neighbors
    • Porches, side doors, garages, and other delivery areas
    • Parcel lockers or building mailrooms

    Carrier scans can occasionally appear shortly before final delivery. If the package still cannot be located, we can assist with a carrier investigation.

    Shipping address accuracy

    Please review your shipping address carefully before completing your order.

    Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address.

    Packages returned because of an incorrect, incomplete, or undeliverable address may require additional shipping charges before they can be sent again.

    The Story behind MASA Chips

    MASA was founded by Steven Arena and Seth Goldstein, two friends whose idea started as a simple bet — could you make a better tortilla chip using only real, traditional ingredients? What followed was the beginning of something much bigger.

    Frustrated by the lack of clean options on the market, they set out to create a chip made with organic corn and grass-fed tallow, just as it would have been made generations ago. When they couldn’t find a manufacturer willing to meet their standards, they took matters into their own hands — building their own small-batch production from scratch to stay true to their vision.

    The result is MASA: a chip that’s crispy, satisfying, and made without seed oils, preservatives, or artificial additives — proving that simple ingredients can deliver better flavor and a better experience.

    MASA Chips FAQs

    What are MASA Chips made from?

    MASA Chips are made with just three ingredients: organic corn, grass-fed tallow, and sea salt.

    Are MASA Chips seed oil free?

    Yes — MASA Chips are 100% free of seed oils, using grass-fed tallow instead for frying.

    What is tallow and why is it used?

    Tallow is rendered beef fat rich in fat-soluble vitamins and traditionally used in cooking for its stability and flavor.

    What is nixtamalization?

    Nixtamalization is an ancient process that improves digestibility and nutrient absorption in corn, used for thousands of years in traditional food preparation.

    Are MASA Chips clean and natural?

    Yes — they contain no preservatives, no artificial flavors, and no pesticides in the corn, focusing on simple, traditional ingredients.

    Are MASA Chips good for everyday snacking?

    Yes — with their simple ingredients and satisfying crunch, they’re designed as a clean, filling alternative to conventional chips.

    Customers praised these tortilla chips as "delicious" with "perfect crunch" and quality ingredients including no seed oils. Many noted they're "more filling than most other chips" and appreciated the thick, hearty texture. However, price is a consistent concern, with shoppers saying they're "expensive but worth it" and "very pricey."

    • The crunch is PERFECT and I love that they're a bit thicker than your average tortilla chip.
    • They are so tasty, super crunchy and I love that I know every single ingredient!
    • With no seed oils they are truly healthy. I do not eat as many chips as they are very filling.

    super addictive - my new fav tortilla chip!

    I recently bought and tried the Cobanero ones and WOW—these are sooo delicious! They’re coated in a slightly spicy, savory seasoning and it's packed with flavor. I love that they're also coated evenly too :DWhile they’d definitely pair perfectly with salsa or dip, I’ve honestly been eating them straight out of the bag because they’re that good. The crunch is PERFECT (super satisfying) and I love that they’re a bit thicker than your average tortilla chip. It makes them less likely to break when dipping. You can tell they’re high-quality from the first bite.I’ll definitely be stocking up on these. Highly recommend if youre looking for some really good tortilla chips

    Delicious.

    Not gonna lie these are delicious and you don’t feel like crap after eating them because they are actually made with real tallow. The bags are much bigger than I expected. The chips are not hard or sharp like some customers were saying. Amazing product.

    Delicious and Crunchy Chips

    These chips are a fantastic take on classic tortilla chips. With no seed oils they are truly healthy. I do not eat as many chips as they are very filling. I have these on order every three months! They are expensive but worth it. They will not go to waste.

    A worthy successor to Paqui in terms of flavor, but not in cost.

    Flavor is strong, salty, quite dusty and very pleasing. Chips are hearty and thick. All the ingredients come together in a unique and satisfying way, which is likely why they cost so much. You may be shocked at the portion in your bag upon arrival. Make sure you enjoy each chip to the fullest.

    Yum but very pricey

    Are these really really good? Yes. Definitely. So crunchy, such great texture, and solid flavor. Not to mention they truly do feel healthier than their contemporaries. But are they worth 15 dollars a bag? HELLLL NAHH

    Yummy and better for you!

    Love these! So tasty and I don’t feel as guilty eating them. They are a little pricey, but worth it IMO. I love the resealable bag to keep them fresh longer. I live alone so I don’t go through things like this super quick. I have also found that they are more filling than most other chips. Some brands I could eat a whole bag, but a handful of these satisfy that “crunch” craving! This flavor has just enough spice, but not too spicy. Excited to try other flavors!

    Delicious!

    These chips are delicious! They’re well seasoned, perfectly crisp, and they came packaged well so they weren’t broken up at all. I like that they use few ingredients too, unlike some other chip brands. They pair perfectly with some salsa too. Definitely recommend these!
