Beyond Avocado Oil: Xaca Cantina Redefines Premium Snacking with Grass-Fed Tallow

Press Releases

Information

Anaheim, CA, Expo West 2026 Avocado oil raised the bar. Xaca Cantina is raising it again. At Expo West, Xaca debuts its grass-fed beef tallow tortilla chips — a bold move in a category still dominated by seed oils and conventional frying systems. The tallow line reflects growing consumer interest in traditional fats, simpler ingredient panels, and higher satiety snacks. Paired with Xaca’s signature flavors — Chile Lime, Mole, Sweet Hot Honey, Cinnamon Churro, and Baja Gold Sea Salt — the new line delivers a richer, more indulgent experience while maintaining clean-label credentials. For retailers seeking differentiation, trade-up potential, and conversation-driving innovation, Xaca’s tallow line represents a first-of-its-kind opportunity in mainstream tortilla chips. This is not a reformulation. This is a reset. Experience it at Expo West. Visit us at Expo West: Level 3, Booth # 8119
