California and a few other states have passed laws to prohibit or at least in some circumstances limit the sale of candy and other types of unhealthy junk food on school campuses. Parents and educators alike are concerned that too much junk food is being consumed by students and that is having a negative effect on their health as well as their ability to focus and learn. Many school programs like athletics, cheer leading and other student organizations rely on fundraising, but with the passing of these new laws, candy is no longer an acceptable product to sell for such fund raising endeavors. Gourmet Jerky is a healthy, creative, and lucrative solution to that problem.
Gourmet Jerky will usually contain all natural seasonings and flavors so that the spiciness or sweetness or whatever flavor you choose will not be too powerful or overbearing. Also, it should not be overly salty because that will definitely ruin the experience not to mention make you very thirsty. What you are looking for is a rich yet subtle flavoring that allows you to enjoy the flavor of the meat itself.
