Vacadillos makes its debut into the snack market as the first Carne Seca meat snack in the United States. Made with healthy and deliciously spicy Latin-inspired flavors, this snack uses an air-drying process to create chewy meat strips. Vacadillos offer thinly sliced pieces of meat boasting 15 grams of protein, 0 grams of carbs, and 0 grams of sugar per serving.

Made without artificial ingredients and preservatives, Vacadillos are available through the brand's e-commerce site and Amazon. Consumers can choose between three Latin flavors. The Chili-Lime flavor features a citrus taste with a little bit of sizzle, while the Habanero includes a little bit of citrus with a lot of heat. Finally, the Scorpion flavor is made with real scorpion peppers married with bold citrus flavors.
