Seed Oils and Your Health: Why We Choose Better Ingredients
Why We Avoid Seed Oils at Protein Snack Shop
There’s been a growing conversation about seed oils and whether they belong in everyday foods. Oils like soybean, corn, canola, and sunflower appear in almost everything — even foods that seem healthy at first glance.
At Protein Snack Shop, we take a different approach.
We keep our ingredient list simple, clean, and easy to understand.
That’s why you’ll never find seed oils in any of our snacks.
Here’s why we made that decision — and why many families are rethinking seed oils in their kitchens.
Why Many Families Are Limiting Seed Oils
1. They’re Heavily Processed
Most seed oils go through high heat, chemical solvents, bleaching, and refining before they reach store shelves. Many families prefer oils closer to their natural state.
2. They’re Unstable Under Heat
Seed oils can break down when heated during baking or cooking. This can change flavor, aroma, and overall quality.

3. They Show Up in Almost Everything
Chips, crackers, sauces, dressings, breads — seed oils are everywhere.
For anyone trying to choose whole-food ingredients, avoiding them can feel frustrating.
4. They Don’t Align With Whole-Food Values
Many families simply want foods that feel close to nature — not dependent on layers of industrial processing.

Better Taste, Naturally
Using clean, traditional fats gives our snacks a pure, homemade taste — rich, comforting, and flavorful.
Aligned With Family Values
Our goal is simple:
Create snacks moms feel proud to give their families.
What We Use Instead of Seed Oils
• Butter
Adds rich flavor and a warm, homemade quality.
• All-Natural Almond Butter
A wholesome fat source that supports texture and flavor.
• Coconut Oil
A stable fat that performs beautifully in baking and aligns with whole-food values.
These fats help create the soft, creamy, indulgent texture you expect from Protein Snack Shop products.
Making Simple, Better Choices
Choosing snacks without seed oils is a small but meaningful step toward a cleaner lifestyle.
It fits naturally into a whole-food approach — and it makes flavorful snacking easier.
