Product review: Hunted & Gathered Dry Wors
Hunted & Gathered, the makers of my favourite beef jerky have a new(ish) product: Dry Wors. This is their version of a traditional South African dried beef sausage. These are expensive ($20.50 per pack) but worth every cent. They are made with organic grass-fed beef, organic coriander seeds, organic black pepper, organic vinegar, organic coconut sugar and pink lake salt. They are chewy but less than jerky, and also fattier. Great shelf-stable snack to have handy. Hunted and Gatheredhuntedandgathered.com.au

Product review: Hunted and Gathered products
Jerky has got to be the best snack ever. While often an image of an American cowboy or truck driver comes to mind, it’s been around for longer than people think, and not only in North America. My ancestors have been eating it forever (in Quechua it’s called charqui and it’s often made of alpaca). What makes jerky so good? It’s cured and dried, so it keeps forever. It’s high in protein, which apart from replenishing your body’s needs, keeps you satisfied much longer than carbs. It’s light in weight, making it perfect for hiking, cycling, etc. It’s tasty. Sadly it’s hard to find commercial jerky that is not full…
