I like flavored meat sticks and I purchased 6 pounds of Skoglunds "regular" meat sticks thru a…read moreschool fund-raiser and they were very good! I saw the company name on the package and when I ran out I ordered more of them directly from their website. If you spend $49 or more you get free shipping - Which I did!! I ordered 10 pounds of meat sticks from Skoglund Meats and my order was shipped out the next day. The reason I ordered that much is because I have problems with high blood-sugar and these meat sticks have replaced the sugar filled high-carb snacks I used to eat - And it works!! It took me almost a week to eat the first 2 pound package of meat sticks (I did also eat some cheese with these as well) and I checked my blood sugar level after they were gone - And it was back to a normal range!! Anyway, if you like meat sticks I highly recommend you try Skoglund Meats. Besides the "regular" beef sticks they have several other flavored beef sticks as well as several flavors of summer sausage too. And I intend to try them all!! Thank You!! https://skoglundmeats.com

I wasn't all that impressed by the flavor. It was a bit too smoky for my liking and the overall flavor wasn't anything I'd want again. In all honesty, I don't think I will be able to finish it. Given how long they've been in business and the large range of meats they offer, I wouldn't write them off since they most likely have other meats that are terrific. Just not their garlic summer sausage.
