Review of Mr. Z Premium Cuts Beef Jerky Peppered Flavor, 4-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6)

The jerky is well made with good flavor. It has nice chewy texture with strong pepper flavor. I think it compares pretty well to some of the better beef jerky brands such as Jack Links.

The beef jerky is made in Brazil. I have no idea what their standard is for beef production nor food processing is, but since imported beef is used in a lot of domestically processed foods including fast food chains, you'd best be cooking at home if consuming imported beef would be a great concern for you.

Also, there was the other reviewer who had a nice diatribe about this product containing all these "preservatives," but of the ingredients he listed, only sodium nitrate is in fact a preservative and a widely used one at that. The other chemicals listed also are generally known to be safe for human consumption.

While they're not exactly vitamins or anything that would be good for you, but if you're afraid of some emulsifiers or dehydrators, you probably shouldn't be eating factory made beef jerky or any processed food for that matter. A lot of these "chemicals" that are used in processed food are naturally occurring in whole foods any way.

I don't mean to discourage people from watching what they eat nor trying to eat healthier food. Rather I hope more people would try to research and understand what they're eating. I simply don't believe blind fear mongering is a way to go about it. Have some jerky. Enjoy life. Moderate.
