Review: Sunnyland Farms Jerky

Jerky's a lot like bacon—long-lasting, nothin' but meat, and people prefer it different ways. If you're like me, and you despise rigid, brittle bacon and bland, rock-hard jerky—both of which resemble tree bark, as far as I'm concerned—then you'll probably dig Sunnyland Farms Artisan Beef Jerky as much as I do. Yep, this stuff is fresh, tender, and loaded with flavor. A hint of spice keeps the taste buds a-tingling, while the moistness of the meat makes your lips smack for more. I can devour an entire package in one sitting—although I always give a few pieces to my pup, who shares my enthusiasm for what very well may be the best jerky I've ever had. Well done, Sunnyland.
