Country Archer Turkey Jerky - Hickory Smoke

I really like jerky in general because it's high protein, low calorie, low effort. But even though I was excited, this was not good. Firstly, the bag says something like "real men don't have buns", which I guess is supposed to be a cute and funny joke, but it just seemed judgy and sexist, so that wasn't a great start.

Totally separate from that though, the taste was not good. The texture was really firm and chewy, in a bad way, but it IS jerky, so fair enough, that's to be expected. It seemed dry looking on the outside, not like the picture, but it was months from expiring, so I'm not sure why. The taste is vaguely teriyaki/soy flavor, a little sweet, and a lot umami, but again not in a good way. It was just a little too much like eating an old shoe.

Overall
Cost: 5/10
Taste: 4/10
