Dear Strangers,
Today's topic for the Strange is the all-mighty SLIM JIM!
Slim Jim is a brand of dry meat snack manufactured by ConAgra Foods, Inc. They are popular in the United States, due in part to their unique texture, salty taste and "hip" marketing. More than 500 million are produced annually in at least 20 varieties.*But what most folks do not know is that, among it's ingredients is MECHANICALLY SEPERATED CHICKEN! Yes, chicken. The beef jerky snack is not, in fact, ALL BEEF!
The amount of preservatives in the Slim Jim has always been a source of worry for people. I believe that those beliefs are correct! The total ingredients in the Slim Jim are, in all, preservatives instead of Chewy Jerky Goodness.
Beware the Slim Jim.
Stranger Still,
Lena 'Weird-o' La'Faye

Creepy the thought that this dearly loved snack could be putting chickens out of buisness. And what about the cows? All they seem to say is "Eat More Chicken." What if our obsession is of juicy steak? What will the cows say then? And what about the producers of Slim Jim who seem to be on the cows side? What will happen to life as we know it?
