Jerky Review: Chinese Brand Beef Jerky

Despite the fact that I prefer jerky to sausage, all the reviews here at MSR have been of sausage. Quite a surprising coincidence. Here is our first jerky review, and I expect jerky to be featured here more prominently in the future.

Chinese Brand Beef Jerky
1.5 oz package
Montclair, CA

Noteworthy Ingredients: Wine, MSG, Soy Sauce

Taste: Anyone who has sampled Asian-style meat snacks knows that they are usually more sweet than salty. This is no exception. Slightly sweet and not any saltiness. Overall, the taste is very mild...in fact, it is rather tasteless on some chews.

Texture: Dry, but not hard. It has a ragged, shredded appearance, almost like it was half way to becoming Jerky Snuff. Overall, it is a pleasant and unique texture and an easy chew.

Overall: Nothing too special, but a satisfying meat-eating experience for the carnivore on the go.

Have you tried this meat snack? Let us know what you think of it in the comments.
