What it is
This is a package of dried and cured turkey meat. It is typically seasoned and then dehydrated to create a chewy, shelf-stable snack. The process of drying removes moisture, which helps to preserve the meat and concentrate its flavor. This particular jerky is made with turkey, offering a leaner alternative to beef jerky. It comes in a convenient, single-serving size.
