Pineapple Jerky: A review.



A few weeks backs I was asked to review some products from Jerky.com. I am shameless. I love to review books and food. I find nothing wrong with it and its the perk of being a blogger while introducing me to new things. At first I thought I was going to get some meat type of jerky. Certain Someone love jerky and is very picky, so I thought he would love to sample with me. But hes been gone. so nix that. What I actually got was new product from them called Pineapple jerky.
I love dried fruit , but sometimes you find them coated with sugar. Especially pineapple. This was a slice of heaven. Just the right amount and thickness and natural sweetness.I got my package while rushing to pick Certain Someone up from the airport. Blood sugar was a little low and this was the perfect reviver.The taste was pure sweet pineapple. The only additive was honey. I also took a sample to work one morning and found it made a great quick morning snack with some hot tea.If fruit is not your thing check out their vast array of meat snacks ranging from ostrich , venison,elk, buffalo, turkey,and beef jerky. Or better yet, get a combo pack.

  5. Mmm, I love pineapple!! Last time I went to the store I found dried without sugar which was lovely.

    It's so fun getting samples! The latest thing I received was Ben & Jerry ice cream last week. Lovely!

  7. Coco this Jerky sounds mighty good to me and it's always great to hear of new products. I have to confess I thought it would be meat before reading through ;0)

  9. I've never heard of Pineapple Jerky. Sounds intriguing. Thanks for sharing this review, Courtney. I will have to look into it. I'm just wondering, did Certain Someone get to sample a tiny piece:)

  11. Interesting choice to call it Jerky rather than dried fruit. I wondered before reading your post if it was going to be savory! Sounds good, though.

  13. Now that's a new one for me. I'll bet that pineapple flavour was super concentrated.

  14. Wow, I love pineapple. Do you think I could just oven-dry some pineapple rings, or do you think I'd need to season the pineapple first? I'd love to try and make some.

  16. Oooooooh. So that's what the pineapple jerky is. I thought (based on the email from Jerky.com) that it was some sort of pineapple flavored meat.
