Beef Jerky

An ode to beef jerky

By Joe PattersonPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

Jack Links has arrived, so what am I to do? Be very careful of this tough meat I’m gonna chew.

Never met food that was strong enough to hurt me. Oh wait, yes I have and it’s called beef jerky.

Eat enough of it and you’ll be left with rubber gums. It’s like chewing on some beef flavored bubble gum.

Be mindful when you purchase. It’s pricey for a pack. But I’m always down to pay it for one of my favorite snacks.

It takes a while to eat it, but I don’t really mind. In the words of Eddie Murphy, it’s beef jerky time.
