If you’re someone who loves a bit of heat in your snack but is careful about avoiding seed oils, you’re in the right place! Seed oils like canola, sunflower, safflower, and soybean oil are often hidden in packaged snacks and can contribute to inflammation and other health concerns. That’s why Jackson’s is dedicated to spotlighting snacks that are not only delicious but also made with avocado oil and other seed oil-free ingredients. Today, we’re diving into spicy snacks that pack a punch—without any seed oils.

Whether you’re reaching for something savory or sweet, these spicy snacks will keep your taste buds happy and your snack routine clean.
