What does /fit/ think of these?
I ate one today as a snack and it was pretty tasty. From the nutrition facts on the label it didn't seem so bad, and they are full of protein.

I was asking if /fit/ thought if it was good for you or not. People post about the nutritional value of food and drink on here all the time

If it's beef jerky, then yes, eat that shit all day. It'll put hair on your damn chest, son.

Not that great for you, imo. Stick to whey isolate if you want protien.

Too much sodium, only moderate protien.

It's actually partly ostrich meat.

Is sodium bad for you only in terms of like cardiovascular health? Because I actually have low blood pressure. What other affects does it have on the body?

Easy as hell to make yourself.

Buy flank steak.

Marinade in soy sauce, worschestire sauce, liquid smoke, honey, garlic, onions overnight.

Remove from marinade, pat dry with tea towel.

Dry with a source of cool air for 8-12 hours depending on the cuts you made. Drying with hot air cooks the meat. Real jerky is supposed to be dried and completely raw, the drying process is what renders it safe to consume. Hot air cooks it and thus throws off the texture.

I knew you could make jerky, but it seems like a bad idea when you're living with dogs.

Also, what is this liquid smoke you speak of?

It's...liquid smoke. Literally. The process for attaining it is to create a somewhat wet heat on nice wood like applewood or hickory, and funnel the smoke upwards through a narrow chimney of sorts, then have it collect in a covered top, where it condenses and forms a liquid.

Very similar to covering a pot of boiling water and having the steam condense into water on the inside of the lid.

And, yeah, making your own jerky makes your house smell like delicious beef for a day or two unless you vent the air out a window or something. Inside dogs would go apeshit over it.

Oh, yeah, don't try making liquid smoke yourself. You need a fair amount of outdoor space and a bit of gear and really proper wood.

You can buy bottled liquid smoke in any grocery store.
