It's apparently not too sweet because you said you liked it before reading how much sugar it has. You only stopped eating it because "muh sugar is poison". If you just wouldn't be such a fucking fatty then you could have some every now and then

I usually get my beef from mexican grocery stores since their butcher shops sell nice, thin-sliced beef at a good price. Marinade it overnight and when you use your food dehydrator use the lowest temp setting it has and don't over-dry it, check it after 7-8 hours depending on how thick it is.

Jack link’s unironically used to be based, but my theory is this:
1. They mass produce a genuinely good jerky
2. They up the marketing (Sasquatch commercials)
3. They continue to sell steadily because jerky is a niche product
4. The jerky they mass produced (and continued to produce) has only gotten more old and more stale
5. They are unwilling to throw away millions of dollars of jerky for obvious reasons
6. Jack link’s is now the shittiest jerky

I actually just tried this shit for the first time. Saw it at a store I don't usually go to and saw how cheap it was compared to the smaller 2-3oz bags of shit like Chef's Cut, Matador, Krave, Lorissa's Kitchen, etc... and figured why the fuck not. Never going back.
