It's been kinda slow here at the ranch lately because I haven't had as many different meat snacks this summer. The convenience store across the street from my workplace is under new ownership and is finally restocking their shelves with a variety of meat. This review is a product of that development. I've also discovered a great unique new sausage made by Old Trapper. When I can get my mitts on them again, I will do a review.The Sasquatch Big Stick, Mild Happy
Made by Jack Links
Minong, WI
2.2 oz Snack Stick, beef and chicken
www.messinwithsasquatch.com
Noteworthy ingredients: Molasses Powder, Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein
Taste: This is the Mild Happy variety. The taste is consistent and, yes, perhaps a bit mild compared your standard extreme meat snack, but still plenty of flavor compared to a non-extreme sausage. Nothing very noteworthy about the taste, but it is decent. There are many sugary ingredients, but it is not sweet at all to my taste buds.
Texture: Firm and consistent, but yields easily to the bite. The casing is thin and takes some effort to peel it from the filling. Very few tooth wedgies. It looks plenty greasy in the wrapper, but it doesn't feel that way in the mouth.
Overall: The Sasquatch is, of course, the Jack Links answer to Slim Jim. It is more meaty than the Jim and not as rubbery. A quality extreme stick if you are into that kind of thing.
Have you tried this meat snack? Let us know what you think of it in the comments.
