So, I was curious to see what was in the "American" section of my local Sainsburys, and I came across beef jerky.
I have of course heard of jerky but I haven't tried it before (and know nothing about brands), but I have been looking for a protein rich savoury snack product, so I thought I would give it a try.
I can't say I am convinced about it. It is sort of disgusting, and yet, I keep eating it... or should I say chewing it. There is also a strange little blue and white packet in there, which says "do not eat" and I guess this is some kind of preservative. It is an "absorber" bag apparently, but I have never seen anything like it before. (Mildly alarming, depending on what is in it.)
Is this a well-known brand in the US?
Is it well-regarded? What's the general opinion about it?
