Beef Jerkey

Post by HOUSTON TEXAN »

Whats your opinion on it as a snack?

I think its good only 80 cals, 1 gram of unsaturated fat, and 7gs of protein per serving.

Your opinion?

I've heard it's quite Salty though.

Not good. Also 80 calorie snacks are pretty useless. 1g Unsaturate, and 7g Protein, makes 37 calories, so what's the other 43? Carbs? only thing I can think of, unless the cal total you obtained is not accurate, or one of your Fat or Protein figures is whacky.

If I'm right about the Salt content, I'd steer clear. with that kind of 80 calorie snack, you'll just rob your body of prescious muscle, and use up some Fat from Ketone production, if the Carb content is insufficient, which at 80 cals must surely be the case.
