Perky Jerky supplied me with the jerky for the review at no cost to myself. I was given the jerky for my honest opinion(s) on their product(s).
I was a little apprehensive at trying this when I got it. A moist jerky kind of set me back, as well as turkey, but we are big jerky lovers at our home, so this was sure something new for us. (We usually eat beef or venison jerky and my husband makes it.)
We started with beef jerky Perky Jerky. I LOVED that I knew and could pronounce ALL ingredients! (You don't find that very often.) It does have Guarana in it, but I never noticed a "boost" of energy. The taste was amazing! It had great flavor and the moistness of it wasn't bad at all!

Next we tried the Turkey Perky Jerky. My first time trying a turkey jerky like this and it wasn't bad at all! If I had the chance I would definitely buy this again! (Either one for that matter!) As the beef one, I never noticed any kind of "boost" from this one, but that didn't bother me one bit because the flavor was great!
