I Ate Half A Bag Of Beef Jerky And Realized I Made A Mistake
I bought this bag of jerky for myself. The photo looks enticing and the label "culinary, smoked brisket jerky" sounds appealing. It didn't taste like typical jerky but I thought to myself that this was the results of cooking with beans and herbs. After finishing half a bag, I saw the small prints on the lower corner of the bag that this is for dogs. Now I know what dog treats taste like (not good).
