Put like at least 5 of them in a bag that is appropriately sized and appropriately priced and I’m all over this shit. Until then, this is the most worthless addition to the world of jerky I have seen and as a jerky lover I take personal offence. Then again, I get offended by lots of piss-poor jerky products.
Yes! I believe it was actually called Mummy Brown! Watched a video about it on YouTube I think within the last year, I think the Smithsonian or someone still has an archived sample of the pigment.
I actually just found bacon jerky in the convenience store the other day. Like 15 pieces in a bag but I think it was something like $10. It was ok, definitely what I expected but nothing more. 340 calories for the whole bag. Didn’t bother checking the other nutrional stuff. 6.5/10.
How many Americans would eat all 5 in one sitting, though? If you put 5 in one pouch, maybe you should paper-wrap each slice to slow people down. Or at least put a note on the label :
110 calories per slice
550 CALORIES IN PACKAGE.
Or would that just normalize the concept of eating it all?
If I cook a pack of bacon there is never any left, even when they were 500g and not this pathetic 375g where they probably include the packing in the weight
I actually found a thing of bacon jerky in the convenience store I normally stop at for some Jack’s Links. I think the bag was like $10, but it was only 340 calories. Bought it out of curiosity, downed the whole thing and then fell asleep. It was pretty decent.
As I stated in another comment, I didn’t bother to check the nutritional information and didn’t really care at the time. I think it was Jack Link’s brand or similar, so you can look it up yourself, I might snatch the bag out of my office trash bin and check later, probably high in sodium and sugars or something.
Are you familiar with this (very small) chain? We didn’t buy anything- none of us loved jerky enough to pay what they were asking for- but it was tempting. Kangaroo jerky? Camel jerky? Snapping turtle jerky? Very tempting.
Holy mother of meat squidman, this is the first I’ve heard of them but their selection looks cursive fine. I’ll have to grab some and report back. Thanks for sharing!

Fun fact: the reason mummified Egyptian remains are so rare is because eating mummy legit used to be a practice in traditional medicine.
Didn’t they also used to make paint out of them? ‘Mummy Brown’ was a popular thing or smthn.

Finally a sensible opinion. I for one am making a weekend project out of making me a big ass batch of bacon jerky.
