Because my life is so incredibly boring most of the time, I decided to take some online and in-person classes and become a certified F.E.M.A person for my "neighborhood. Apparently, you get called to go clean up chemical spills, help people in emergencies if you get there before anyone else, stuff like that. I just started it a couple of months ago and will finish in April some time. Reason for bringing it up--- They have a list of "food recommendations" to have in the case of "emergency" one of which is all kinds of meat jerky. Just the thought of it disgusts me,... SO gross, dehydrated flesh. I was at Whole Foods Market this morning picking up some quick groceries, when I noticed some "all natural chemical-free tuna jerky". It was *very* expensive.... tiny little package for $8.00. Japanese, wild caught tuna. I thought... ok, it's supposedly chemical free, so we will give it a try.
When I got home, I opened up the smelly package and took a little bite. I had some involuntary gagging as I was trying to swallow. I thought of giving it to the dog, who was stalking me from the moment I brought the package home, but decided to see if Jasmine might like it. The little monkey loves it. She loves all kinds of seafood anyway, but she literally wanted to eat the entire package... which I would not let her do because I thought she might get.. uh... constipated:)... since it is so dry. She said "I feel like a dog. This is SO good, kind of like my little doggie treat". Yuk, so I think I am going to maybe try some turkey jerky or something not quite so smelly. You can purchase it online fairly cheaply, but it is the chemicalized processed junk. The non- chemical kind is really cost prohibitive. So, new discoveries about Jazzy every day:)
