The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
165. Steven Rofrano: Why Your Chips Are Toxic and How to Snack Smarter With Masa Chip Founder

I think I got it online. I forget which brand it was, but I think it was Amazon. I just found some like grass-fed beef tallow, bought it online. And yeah. The turkey fryer I think was Costco. Thanksgiving turkey fryers, I think RFK's video.

Yeah, exactly. Turkeys are much harder to fry than tortilla chips, I'll say that.

And they do it fast. I mean, if you put ice cubes into a deep fryer, that's not fun. Yeah. Because the act of frying is basically rapidly boiling the water. And so if you have the ice, I don't know, it's denser or something because it doesn't spread out. Whatever. Yeah, it's not a good time. So don't do that. It's not a good time.

I got tortillas, actually. I found a guy who made organic corn tortillas and, like, ordered a case from him. He's based in Massachusetts or something.

Yeah, they're flexible. It's like you go to a Mexican restaurant, the tortillas, they come in that little bowl with the weird little lid with the paper. Yeah. That kind of thing. Okay. I chopped them up on a cutting board into triangles, and I tossed them in the fryer outside, of course, not indoors. Mm-hmm.

And the first thing I noticed about them was that they didn't taste beefy or anything, which kind of surprised me at that point. Yeah, beef tallow. I was expecting, hey, if we use beef tallow, it might taste meaty or greasy or kind of weird. But I was very happily surprised that they were neither greasy nor beefy. And so the ultimate test came. This was actually at Easter.

My extended family was over. The ultimate test came. when I brought them inside and started feeding them to my extended family, a lot of whom are not interested in health. So these are the type of people who, as a lot of people are out there, who might say something like, I'd rather enjoy my life than be healthy. I'm sure you've heard this a billion times. Yeah, a billion times.
