What You Should Know

You'd find this in the snack or jerky aisle, at a gas station checkout, or in a specialty section as a small grab-and-go treat — marketed as a gourmet twist on a classic meat snack. The Wagyu and truffle cues give an indulgent, slightly luxurious vibe, but the marinated, dried texture, added cane sugar and commercial soy and flavoring ingredients point toward industrial processing and a ready-to-eat packaged product.
