Beef jerky is commonplace but might not be a suitable snack for those who don't eat beef, so the new [KRAVE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krave) Honey Habanero Chicken Jerky is positioned to be an alternative option for consumers to enjoy.

The [chicken jerky](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cricket-jerky) is made with premium ingredients in order to make it a natural snack option that is free from gluten, low in fat and a good source of protein to stave off hunger between meals.

The KRAVE Honey Habanero Chicken Jerky is made with all-natural ingredients including chicken that has been raised without antibiotics or growth hormones. This changes perceptions of what jerky is made with to make it a more realistic snack option for those looking for a [healthier alternative to traditional beef varieties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lorissas-kitchen-meat-snacks).
