<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=3>If you can find a nice meat market in your town, they usually make "homemade" jerky in various flavors. This is a lot better than the "store" bought jerky. Here is a neat trick to keep your jerky fresh on the trail. Keep it in an air tight jar with a piece of apple. The apple keeps the jerky fresh a lot longer. I have been deep in the Sierras and my jerky was fresh and tasty days after I bought it. Of course, I do not eat much meat anymore, so I do not carry jerky anymore on the trail. :-(</FONT></DIV>
