Beef jerky gets a kick of caffeine

DENVER The Performance Enhancing Meat Snack Co. announced Monday the immediate availability of an invigorating caffeinated beef jerky combining premium strips of peppered beef with an energizing additive.

Perky Jerky contains roughly the same amount of caffeine found in two cans of a popular energy drink. Additionally, it is 90 calories per serving with 22 grams of protein.

Perky Jerky is the first ever energy jerky to be approved by the United States Department of Agriculture and it is already developing a grassroots.

More than three years in the making, Perky Jerky is a culmination of its creator's quest to formulate the world's best tasting beef jerky with a boost of energy found in no other jerky product.

Perky Jerky is flavored using a 100% natural additive derived from Guarana, a plant native to South America, and found in many energy drinks and herbal teas. 

"We chose Guarana because of its smooth, reliable and predictable energizing properties. It's an all natural way to give an energetic punch to the tender, peppered beef that we use to make Perky Jerky," said Brian Levin, developer of Perky Jerky.

Perky Jerky is available on the Web at www.perkyjerky.com and will soon be available in stores nationwide.
