The convenience food industry has us convinced that healthy equals complicated, expensive, and time-consuming.

But what if I told you two guys just spent 18 months fighting federal regulators to prove that the healthiest snack doesn't need to be cooked to death or pumped full of preservatives?

In this episode, I sit down with Jon Engelson and Joe Berg, the masterminds behind JoBurg Meats, who are revolutionizing the way we think about convenient nutrition.

Their journey from regulatory nightmare to creating a two-ounce package that delivers the protein equivalent of a six-ounce steak will change how you think about fueling your fitness goals.

Questions you'll find answers to:

  • Why did it take 18 months to get FDA approval for the healthiest snack?

  • What's the real difference between heat-treated and non-heat-treated protein products?

  • How can one small dietary change create momentum for bigger health transformations?

  • What makes this approach different from every other "healthy" snack on the market?
