Original Beef Stick, 1.15 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd find this beef stick in the grab-and-go snack aisle, gas station cooler, or tossed in a backpack for hikes and road trips — a compact, protein-forward snack marketed as a 'better' meat stick. It gives a practical, slightly nostalgic vibe (camp snacks, lunchbox throwback), but the chewy, shelf-stable texture and use of encapsulated acids, cultured celery powder and a collagen casing reveal industrial processing behind the convenience.

Why this score?
Although the ingredient list is largely beef and spices, the product uses industrial processing aids (encapsulated lactic acid), cultured celery powder for curing, and a collagen casing to achieve a shelf-stable, uniform texture. Those additives and manufactured components are characteristic of ultra-processed foods (NOVA 4).

Common Questions about Original Beef Stick, 1.15 OZ
The Original Beef Stick can be considered a healthy snack for protein seekers! With 10 grams of protein and only 100 calories, it’s a great option for those on a low-carb or keto diet. Just keep in mind that 'healthy' can be subjective; it's packed with protein but low in fiber, so it might not be the best choice if you’re looking for a high-fiber snack.
