Do not be fooled by its vibrant packages, this beef jerky taste about as good as it costs. One of the only brands of jerky you will find at Walmart, seen as low as $2.50 a bag. You can also find these at your local grocery store.
As soon as you pick up this bag of Jack Link's Jerky, you will more than likely notice how soft the meat is. Almost as if moisture and condensation has been trapped inside for weeks. We aren't talking about once in a blue moon either... This beef jerky continuously disappoints. Once purchased; The first bite alone will have you staring at the meat to provide your own "mental" quality evaluation.
The extremely flexible moist pieces of meat inside unfortunately do not tear, or rip apart. Instead, you are chewing for hours, wondering when is a good time to take a drink. The jerky seems as if it is coated in a thin oily substance which may be the culprit to some of its issues. The flavor, if any, is bland due to the taste of other oils and moist substances.
Other than that, pack some toothpicks because its not so tender.
