The Truth About Store-Bought

Most "carnivore" snacks at grocery stores contain soy sauce, sugar, and seed oils. Even the clean brands charge $2.50–$3.20 per ounce.

A $70 dehydrator + $6/lb eye of round = the same quality for $0.40–$0.60/oz. Pays back in 4 weeks.

Label Red Flags

  • Soy sauce, sugar, dextrose, maltodextrin
  • Canola, sunflower, vegetable oil
  • "Natural flavors" — usually plant-derived
  • Sodium nitrite, MSG, carrageenan
  • Meat. Salt. Water. Maybe black pepper.
