Primal Strips Mesquite Lime

 

Primal Strips are perfect to add a burst of vegetarian protein to lunch or a snack. I’m not concerned with weight loss, but if you are these are a perfect lower calorie, high protein snatck on the go.

The Mesquite Lime flavor sounded interesting to me, so I was excited to try it. The mesquite lime flavor is made with setian, isolated wheat protein (or gluten). I was also excited to see the product didn’t contain soy protein, as soy doesn’t always agree with me.

The texture and flavor were great until I tasted something… Something horrible… Pickles. I have a weird pickle aversion and even the smell of them makes me nauseous. Sure enough, dill pickles were on the ingredient list for this flavor of jerky.

But guess what? As much as I hate pickles, I loved this jerky and I finished it with only a little bit of an issue. If you are a normal, pickle loving person you will love this flavor.

There is a strange aftertaste with this variety too, but I think that’s just something you come across in meatless jerky.
