My oldest loves snacking on these. They have been great to throw in his back pack for a quick snatch and to keep in the car. We have tried many different kinds of beef sticks and this has by far been more superior. There made from good quality ingredients and I feel good about giving these to my kids. Review: Tasty and affordable! - On a keto diet, these meat sticks type things are a great keto friendly "go to" item, for a snack or as part of a meal. This is, I think, the fourth brand of the basic "meat stick" now that I've tried, so I am comparing them to other brands I've ordered and eaten already. For my taste, these are just perfect. Some brands lean toward being hard to chew, almost like jerked beef, and some lean toward being mushy, almost like a raw hot dog. Like a Goldilocks tale, Nick's Sticks got it just right. Excellent texture on these, just a bit of chewiness without being tough. Outstanding flavor. Mine arrived fresh, a long expiry date, so plenty of time to eat them, but didn't have to worry about that because they were so tasty that they got gobbled up right quick. My only issue is that I wish they came in single packs. I tend to eat just one, but the double pack (and great taste!) makes it tempting to eat two obviously, and an extra step is needed to package up the spare one for next time. But, these are also the least expensive of the meat sticks on here, that I've tried, so maybe that's as a result of doubling up with two sticks in one wrapper. I do appreciate the savings and, not a big deal to toss the other one in a ziplock bag for later. Just not as simple, when on the road, or out and about, and nowhere to store the opened package. Good excuse to eat both, but then of course these don't last as long, going through two at a time. Perhaps that's the thinking behind this double package? Anyway, I love these, and will buy them again (already have!) so, very easy to recommend, but just know that they do come two in a package, a minor caveat. Hope this helps, thanks for reading. :) ## Features - YOUR ON-THE-GO PROTEIN: Contains 6 - 1.7 oz. packages of 2 sticks -- a trial-size box built for the hiking pack or the day trip, no big commitment needed to try clean protein on the trail. - NOT BEEF JERKY, YOUR CHOICE OF FOUR: This listing covers the full Clean & Balanced family across 6 resealable packs of 2 sticks each, so you pick Beef, Turkey, Chicken or Spicy, roughly 10-15g protein per stick. - NO NITRATES, NO NITRITES ADDED: We skip synthetic preservatives and cure the traditional way with celery juice and Redmond sea salt, so every flavor in the family carries the same clean-cure standard, stick after stick. - PALEO, KETO, WHOLE30 APPROVED: Every protein option meets the same strict cert triad and is Gluten Free, so whatever flavor lands in your cart fits the same clean-label rules you already trust, no exceptions. - HAND-CRAFTED IN SMALL BATCHES: Founded in 2011 and still made in Marshfield, Wisconsin, not shipped in from an anonymous co-packer, every stick across this lineup is Made in the USA in small, accountable batches. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00QU781RG | | Age Range Description | Adults | | Best Sellers Rank | #27,020 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #319 in Jerky | | Biological Source | Grass-fed | | Brand | Nick's Sticks | | Brand Name | Nick's Sticks | | Cuisine | American cuisine | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 1,456 Reviews | | Diet Type | Gluten Free, Keto, Paleo | | Flavor | Original Beef | | Item Dimensions | 2 x 0.5 x 8 inches | | Item Form | Stick | | Item Highlight | Made in the USA | Gluten Free | Paleo, Keto, Whole30 Approved | No Soy, Antibiotics or Hormones | | Item Package Weight | 0.34 kg | | Item Weight | 1.7 ounces | | Manufacturer | Nick's Sticks | | Model Number | NS101 | | Net Content Weight | 1.7 ounces | | Number of Items | 6 | | Number of Pieces | 2 | | Package Type Name | Bag | | Part Number | NS101 | | Protein | 10 g | | Set Name | Pack of 6 | | Size | 1.7 Ounce (Pack of 6) | | Special Features | Blended | | Specialty | Gluten Free | | UPC | 859154005009 | | Unit Count | 10.2 Ounce | | Vitamins And Minerals | 33 milligrams | ## Product Details - **Biological Source:** Grass-fed - **Brand:** Nick's Sticks - **Flavor:** Original Beef - **Item Form:** Stick - **Number of Items:** 6 ## Images ![- Nick's Sticks Clean & Balanced 100% Grass-Fed Beef Snack Sticks (6-1.7oz) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91K0aU0TIyL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Flavor** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: The ingredient list on the pack is different than the one listed on this page. What are "spices" in the Redmond seasoned salt?** A: Here is completed ingredient list: beef, water, Redmond Seasoned Salt (sea salt, onion, coriander, mustard, black pepper, paprika, celery seed, turmeric and parsley), lactic acid (derived from non-GMO beets), celery juice. In beef collagen casing. **Q: Are these non-gmo? tyia** A: its beef, not organics.... **Q: How many ounces is each package of two sticks?** A: 1pkg of 2 sticks - 1.7oz / 47g **Q: Is organic salt really a thing? Is that like organic air?** A: No, salt cannot be certified organic because it's a non-living compound. When a food product is certified 100% organic, salt and water are the only ingredients that don't have to meet the criteria because there are no criteria they could meet. That's not to say Redmond sea salt is just the same as any other salt - I believe it really is a better choice and I'm glad to see it as an ingredient here.

Airlines serve pretzels (wheat) and Planters Peanuts?? :-/ No, Peanuts are not safe, they are processed in plants that also process wheat. Airports are full of fast food and very little is safe for a Celiac. This year on our annual trip to Florida I was determined to plan ahead so I didn't starve on our 7 hour trip. Most Jerkies have soy in them, again not safe for a Celiac so I had to search the net. As always Amazon was the reliable source for me! Nicks Stick are fabulous! They are portioned generously for sharing, they are not overly salty, and seasoned perfectly for me. They were a godsend on this trip. I had allotted the packages for the trip down and back and had plenty until my husband got hooked on them and we faught over them a little. I would have no problem rating them with 5 stars based on taste. I gave them 4 stars because the packages are a little hard to open.... usually the very top portion of jerky packages have a slit or the plastic is separated enough to pull apart. These packages were so closed up you couldn't open them without a lot of cursing and sometimes help. Jerky is a quick convenient snack, you should be able to open them quickly. Sometimes I would need scissors..... Other than that I will be definitely buy these again! ## Frequently Bought Together - Nick's Sticks Clean & Balanced 100% Grass-Fed Beef Snack Sticks | Made in the USA | Gluten Free | Paleo, Keto, Whole30 Approved | No Soy, Antibiotics or Hormones (6 – 1.7oz.
