So, show of hands? Who has had this before, and how are they?

you gotta be jerky-ing me around

Do you have anything more digestible? I've got diverticulitis.

Bonus points if you know where that quote is from.

Gourmet jerky? Sounds like an oxymoron.

Some are moist but tasty nonetheless

Some of these seem to have a lot of corn syrup in them.

Insert jerky meat in my mouth-hole joke here.

Had it,
Not interested in having it again.

See yah tomorrow

If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding! How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?

Jokes aside, this is really excellent jerky. Too bad they don't have the curry flavor. These usually go for about $5-6 per pack, so use that to compare pricing.

awww, vegans/vegetarians left out in the cold..

On a more serious note ... $23 a pound seems a bit extreme.

Ordered these before. They were just mediocre. Biggest issue was the jerky was soggy and some were even dripping with the flavoring.

I ordered 15 of them, tried each flavor. Had no desire to eat them ever again and gave the 10 remaining packages away to people I don't like.

The 5-bag sampler is $35 on Krave's website or $7 for individual bags.

Usual price is $30 - $35 on their website; shame no pineapple orange

Their web site lists the 5-pack for $35 so this is a very good deal.

I guess woot's acting

puts on sunglasses

kinda jerky tonight.


YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!



(Oh yeah, I went there.)

Had to scroll 3/4 the way down to find out what kind o' meat they use. Apparently the whole farm - pig, turkey, cow. Trying to pass this off as healthy is funny, 'specially with sugar in the top two or three ingredients. Yes, brown sugar is still sugar, even tho it's a darker color. I'll wait for the six pack of chia seeds, thanks.

I ordered some from their website 2 years ago and I was certainly not pleased. The flavor of the meat was difficult to recognize with the overabundance of flavoring they coated it with. The flavors really weren't that great to begin with, but the jerky was layered so much with it I felt like the meat itself was flavorless...

Jerky is expensive. The Jacks Links brand I get at wallymart are about $4.00 for 3.25oz. I would assume this is a bit better brand. Has anyone had experience with both?

This is my first woot and you guys best not be jerking me around.

You will Krave this jerky that you biggest purchasing mistake will be ordered just one set of packages.

IN FOR 3!!!

Ahh yes, beef jerky. A wonderful low carb low fat snack guaranteed to satisfy your hunger. Actually, The word "jerky" is a corruption of the Spanish charqui which is from the Quechua word ch'arki. which means to burn (meat). Drying the meat prevents it from becoming spoiled! Yummy, yum, yum!

I'm having a little trouble visualizing 3.25 oz of jerky.

Is that like a small handful?

Meat purchased.

I just realized why TT didn't pick this question for woot clue.
I would have narrowed it down in 5 seconds with my first question!

Its the bag size you usually see at convenience stores, etc.

PORK in beef jerky? How Dot's Poetry Corner. (Hmmm...bacon-wrapped jerky tho...now *that* would be something! Especially if deep-fried on a stick.)

My teenage daughter who is diabetic loves these because the low carb content.

My grandfather with high blood pressure had better stay away from these with the sodium levels listed!

Nutrition value looks decent until you learn a serving size is 1 oz.

You mean is it smaller than a breadbasket?

I bought this crap last year. Very sticky. mostly icky and totally not delicious. Guess what w00t is doing since the arrival of Amazon?

Yep!

I do wonder if woot will ever sell a breadbox now, too.

At least it's not high fructose corn syrup.

Although, if you're steering clear of GMO stuff, I'd steer clear of this, if I were you.

If it ain't reasonably certifiable as non-GMO then I ain't eatin' it! Unless I'm hungry.

Based on the !beef and being over seasoned, I am not getting any. I can have local that is beef for ~$1.40/oz, or bison for ~$2/oz.

And I was pretty excited based on the price per oz.

My first question is *always* Will it fit in my mouth, should I put it in there :P
