Beef jerky from Singapore is the best.. there's this one chain with a bright yellow background n chinese characters (forget what)... I think it's something that sounds like "beeee"... Anyways, htey make the best stuff for a reasonable price.. Used to buy a whole bagful of meat n chew on it whilst walking X] Those were the days....

I found some reasonably priced home-made jerky available. I've ordered a small quantity for a sample and will get back to you on what I think of it. I may even resell it from this guy, as I'd be able to sell it for about $80/kg, as opposed to the $150 or so that you would have to pay normally

I dont think its THAT bad for you. But its probably not much healthier than other snack foods. It pretty much salted and dried out meat. So its hard/leathery. And you just chew on it.
