Jerky Reviews
The 365 brand is sold at the popular organic store Whole Foods Market. This 3 ounce/85 gram bag of original flavor is no exception, being organic. The 365 brand of jerky is only sold in the USA, not in Canada, or at least not in Ontario.
This bag was bought in 2013 at a Whole Foods store while visiting Cambridge, Massachusetts. Whole Foods was started back in 1980 with one small store in Austin, Texas. Today, they are the world’s Read More
In searching for new jerky, sometimes you get lucky, and find locally made jerky. In 2010 that was the case when visiting Oxnard, Ventura County, California. At a convenience store, I purchased a 1 ounce/28 gram bag of Old Fashioned flavor of the Ventura 101 Snacks jerky brand name.
As suggested by the logo, there is a Highway 101, also named the Ventura Freeway. There appears to be no official web site for Ventura 101 Snacks LLC. We are Read More
In 2010, I purchased this 3.5 ounce/99 gram original flavored bag of Arizona Jack’s beef jerky while visiting Daytona Beach, Florida, at a grocery store.

This bag of homestyle turkey jerky was purchased online in 2011. Mama Mia’s jerky is made in Corona, California, and distributed by Mama Mia’s Beef Jerky. On their web site, it is described how they consistently use the best quality and taste, without compromise.
Grandpa Ward (King of the Smoker), perfected a secret family recipe, where they are committed with living up to Grandpa Ward’s passion for the very best snack food experience possible. They offer Read More
This was one of the early bags added to my collection of jerky bags. I purchased this original flavor bag at a convenience store in North Arlington, New Jersey, in 2008. That was the one and only time I ever saw Adirondack Backwoods jerky for sale in a store.
Adirondack Backwoods jerky is distributed by Border View Foods Inc., based out of Chazy, New York. Based on my research, it would appear that this jerky has been discontinued, although we Read More
