THE CARNIVORE DIET BENEFITS
Whether you’re on the carnivore diet or you’re getting started with keto, you’re going to explore a world of different foods and snacks throughout your journey. One of the more popular options you’re going to come across are meat snacks.
Wait - what are meat snacks, exactly?
Glad you asked! Today, we’re going to introduce you to the #1 way to keep cravings at bay while actually enjoying your snacks.
No - we’re not suggesting you haul a pack of deli meat with you everywhere we go. And while beef jerky is certainly a type of meat snack, we’ve got something far more exciting to share with you today - our carnivore chips. With just two ingredients and melt-in-your-mouth goodness, you’ll be glad you took a chance on these.
Before we get into the hype around Carnivore Snax, we’ve got quite a bit to share with you about meat snacks in general. So, let’s get into the first question on the docket today: what are meat snacks, exactly?
What are Meat Snacks, Exactly?
As the name suggests, these are snacks made from meat. As you make life changes and transform your diet, the old snacks you’re used to aren’t going to cut it anymore. No longer are you eating just for flavor - you’re eating for function.
This is true of many diets - from the Carnivore diet to Keto, and even less restrictive diets - where one just wants to cut out unnecessary sugar, carbs, and artificial flavors.
The point is that rather than reaching for a bag of chips or even fruit - which is loaded with sugar and carbs - you can rely on meat snacks. They offer a potent dose of protein with zero carbs. And, they’re downright delicious - at least, when you get your hands on the right product! As we teased at the outlook, the reputation of Carnivore Snax speaks for itself - people can’t get enough of them.
So, that’s the basics of meat snacks. Simple enough, right? But, there is much more to these snacks than meats the eye. To progress this conversation and provide you with deeper insights, let’s ask a more important question that yields a better answer: what are meat snacks made of?
What are Meat Snacks Made of? The Importance of Checking Ingredients
This is a loaded question, and one that we are unable to provide a “one-size-fits-all” answer to. That’s because in this day and age, there are countless companies offering their own take on meat snacks. From jerky to biltong - and even the more simplified approach to meat snacks we’ve taken at Carniovore Snax.
Here’s what you need to know about what meat snacks are made of traditionally - and why checking the ingredients label is an essential part of picking yours.
Most Options are Packed With Filler Ingredients & Artificial Flavors
For decades, dieters of all walks of life have relied on classics like beef jerky to stay within the confines of their diets. And to a certain extent, this works - until you take a more intensive look at the ingredients label. This will reveal just how processed your favorite jerky snacks are.
To give you a better look at just how questionable common meat snacks ingredients formulations can be, let’s examine Jack Links. You’ve no doubt seen ads for these beef jerky packs and sticks - and you’ve probably come across them in your local gas stations or grocery stores. Here’s the breakdown on what goes into their original beef jerky recipe:
“BEEF, WATER, SUGAR, BROWN SUGAR, CONTAINS 2% OR LESS OF SEA SALT, SALT, SOY SAUCE (WHEAT, SOYBEANS, SALT), HYDROLYZED CORN PROTEIN, YEAST EXTRACT, FLAVORS, MALTODEXTRIN, CULTURED CELERY EXTRACT, BEEF STOCK, PINEAPPLE POWDER, CITRIC ACID”
That’s a lot of ingredients…and don’t even get us started on the flavored options! We aren’t here to talk down on Jack Links - they aren’t then only company doing this, after all. This is what you can expect to find on just about every meat snack product out there. The same is true of biltong.
All of this is to say that traditional meat snacks don’t cut it. You need a snack with as few ingredients as possible. And at Carnivore Snax, we’ve got exactly what you need…
