Sweetly Spicy Beef Jerky

This Combination of Sriracha and Beef Jerky is as Delicious as Snacks Get

— April 7, 2013 — Lifestyle
Spicy beef jerky is one of the greatest snacks you can find during a late night visit to your local convenience store.

However, now that we've been made aware of the existence of Sriracha sauce combined with spicy beef jerky, this could very well create a singularity of deliciousness so powerful that mere mortals will be too weak to resist. The spicy beef jerky was created by J&D's, the same folks who are responsible for producing bacon-flavored condoms and bacon lube. If you can't trust your snacking to the creative fellows who create bacon-flavored prophylactics, then who can you trust?

The spicy beef jerky is apparently so delicious that it captured the attention of none other than The Oatmeal, one of the most popular comic strips on the web. The Sriracha jerky is available through The Oatmeal's merchandise shop.
