@medz@mexicantacos, Meds, didn’t you mean Snake JG¿? He’s the one with the weird Username,…although, Your name is just as odd as even mexicantacos, i still think Sake has my vote!! 🫢 What does ‘JG’ stand for JiGantic w/a J¿?
So, After going to Minong WI (Headquarters of Jack Links) They have 10Lbs of the kippered beef (think Beef Jerky) for $72.50 out the door.
Man; the retail price is NUTS. But not bad here, Up to you if you cant get to Minong WI.
@robson The nutrition label wants you to think it’s less than 4% sugar, but I suspect creative accounting methods given that four kinds of sugar are listed in the ingredients. And then there’s the whole “things that don’t need to be explicitly stated because they are just permitted” issue, which rather makes a mockery of the whole nutrition label concept.
@draigun@finsterhygiene Well it starts with the Ninja blenders they sometimes sell here. It’s a bit harder because they keep clucking and trying to fight their way out before you put the lid on. Then add salt and corn syrup and pour into a tube.
@medz@yakkoTDI I think that means the Side Deal product is cheaper on a per pound basis ($8/lb here vs $6.06/lb there); plus, for those of us that are very mediocre, the VMP discount only available at Side Deal would theoretically make it even cheaper… Hmm…
In case anyone wasn’t sure, it is a bad idea to eat one of these a day for the next 2 months.
@SnakeJG I disagree for no reason, my butthole can take it
@mexicantacos with a name like that, anything is possible

@SnakeJG What makes that a bad idea?

@jonjen2 These are $30 for 3.75 lbs. So $8/lb. Your bulk direct purchase in-person was $7.25/lb. That’s only about 9% savings over this deal.
@jonjen2 @mike808 Kippered beef has a much more favorable ingredient profile than today’s deal.
@jonjen2 @Limewater @mike808 Kippered beef might actually contain things explicitly identifiable as having been beef.
For $8/lb, these are a far tastier option, higher quality option.

For more savings, get the ends & pieces in the 5lb pack.
ProTip: The Jim’s Blue Ribbon Summer Sausage is the finest meat candy on the planet.
They’re in Oshkosh, WI. So if you’re up for a trek to Minong, Oshkosh is not a big deal. And you can visit the Jelly Belly factory too in Oshkosh.
@mike808 My parents had a cabin nearby and I stopped in at Silver Creek Specialty meats once. Definitely good stuff!
Somewhere around six to eight percent sugars, obfuscated via the usual subterfuges.
@werehatrack and don’t forget Red 3, Yellow 6, and nitrites.
With all that together, it’s gotta be good!

Ordered Hot last time these were available. They’re pretty tasty.
Yes, it does burn.
@wplumleyz does it burn going out too? I’m looking to add some fire to my end game
But, couldn’t these be used as swizzle sticks for margaritas?
And their disposal would be environmentally friendly.
@phendrick I would consider one as a bloody mary garnish.
Ordered one of each, I’ll take the intestinal discomfort or freeze some for later…
/giphy slim-jim-macho-man-savage
These are actually really good!!
@RufusGoldenball Of all the beef sticks I have tried the Jack Links always tasted the best.
/showme logical-emerald-bubble
They aren’t going to suddenly go bad on the “best by” date. It’s shelf-stable sausage.
/giphy frothy-turbulent-cable
@craigthom that’s true, the sticks will last forever, but they’ll kill you first!
@craigthom @robson Won’t their preservatives also preserve you?
Works out to $8/lb. Enjoy your mechanically separated chicken, nitrites, artificial color, and sugars!
@ciabelle and individual wrapped packaging. Good luck getting that with your bulk ground chuck
@ciabelle @medz put all of it together in your meat grinder… mmm
@ciabelle I’ll stick with my celery salt which totally isn’t just nitrites under a different name
@ciabelle @medz @robson
OK.
@blaineg @ciabelle @medz Holy shit, lol and that’s terrifying! Watching the bicycles get shredded was kind of sad though
/giphy overwhelming-normal-skin
How does one mechanically separate their chicken? Asking for a friend…
@finsterhygiene I would guess with some sort of mechanism or a machine. Just a guess.
@draigun @finsterhygiene Well it starts with the Ninja blenders they sometimes sell here. It’s a bit harder because they keep clucking and trying to fight their way out before you put the lid on. Then add salt and corn syrup and pour into a tube.
In for 3 on Original!
Bought 2 of the Hot last time, but its “too hot” for my wife and daughters, so I have to eat them alone.

Worse date and higher price on sidedeal. Fewer, but all hot.
@medz 2.2 oz there vs. 1.0 oz here.
@medz @yakkoTDI I think that means the Side Deal product is cheaper on a per pound basis ($8/lb here vs $6.06/lb there); plus, for those of us that are very mediocre, the VMP discount only available at Side Deal would theoretically make it even cheaper… Hmm…
@medz @psantora @yakkoTDI Somehow it just seems wrong to think about this stuff on a per pound basis.
/showme spicy tailpipe from eating too many hot sticks
think of these as greasy jerky treats that make beer taste better.
'specially the hot flavor.
Nancy Reagan says just say no to nitrites.
Hi ho, hi ho, with nitrites we shall glow… phweeee phweeee phweeee phweeee phweeee phweeee! hi ho, hi ho!
If I eat three boxes of these will I need a mechanically-separated artery later?
@ParadisePete more like a mechanically separated corpse!
