So Who are these dieticians, sports nutritionists, and snacking aficionados, and what do they have to say?

Our savory strips are enjoyed and recommended by the likes of Nancy Clark, an internationally known sports nutritionist, nutrition author and Leslie Bonci, a Nationally Recognized Sports Nutritionist, author, and Director of Sports Nutrition at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center,  and snacking aficionado Lisa Lillien (aka Hungry-Girl) to name a few.

“What a big protein bang for a small calorie buck.”

“They are fabulous! Love the flavors- so creative and what a big protein bang for a small calorie buck. This is great for my athletes and patients who have a calorie cap, but still need to meet their protein requirements. And added bonus: tasty, convenient and portable!”

 -Leslie Bonci, Nationally Recognized Sports Nutritionist and Director of Sports Nutrition at the  University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.

“They are the Best Meat Snack I’ve Ever Tasted!”

“I love Silver Creek Simply Snackin  gourmet meat snacks - not only are they convenient and healthy, they are the best meat “snack” I have ever tasted!  Delicious!  I’m a label reader; I monitor calories, fat content, protein and sodium levels on just about everything I eat, especially my snacks.  Most dried meats are full of MSG and fillers; Simply Snackin  meats have no MSG, Trans Fats or Fillers!  Other dried jerky meats are tough and hard to chew – does anyone really like shoe leather? Simply Snackin  meats are easy to eat and enjoy, for a fulfilling and tasty snack, anytime, anywhere!”

“I Find Simply Snacking Superior to a Protein Shake.”

“In October 2009, I was introduced to the Silver Creek line of Simply Snacking at the National Convention for Dietitians in Denver, Colorado. I was so impressed with this product that I requested a donation to take on a mission trip to Roatan, Honduras.  The village I would be visiting is very poor and the people have very few protein foods to eat. Healthy Snackin provided a very generous amount of snacks for us to take to the people of this village.  Simply Snacking was a wonderful ice-breaker....not to mention a snack that the locals enjoyed tremendously.

As a dietitian, I recommend the line of Silver Creek "Simply Snacking" for those with diabetes, low blood sugars, athletes, or persons who are trying to lose or maintain weight.  This product is portable, compact and more important delicious while providing extra protein with minimum calories.  I find "Simply Snacking" superior to a protein shake.”

“An absolute must for any outdoor enthusiast.”

"I have been an outdoor adventurer most of my adult life, and am always looking for more tasty snacks that provide me with that boost of energy to get me through a long day of tramping through the wilderness. After trying tons of different snacks and ur typical hiking snacks, I started looking for something that would not only satisfy my taste but also be easier to pack. After coming across the gourmet meat snacks that Healthy snackin provides, nothing else compares. They meet all the criteria I was seeking. Not only are the snacks pure energy, but they also are easily the best tasting, most portable and easiest to travel with wherever my adventure may take me. An absolute must for any outdoor enthusiast."

“They are portable, palatable and have a good nutritional profile.  I feel comfortable recommending them to all my patients as a healthy snack food.”

“My clients are always looking for healthy foods they can pack in their briefcase for their long days in meetings, or gym bags for after a workout, or in their backpacks for after school before practice or in their carryon luggage for flights.  A Simply Snackin Strip fits the bill on all occasions.  They are portable, palatable and have a good nutritional profile.  I feel comfortable recommending them to all my patients as a healthy snack food.”
 “In addition, I love eating them myself, not only because the great taste but because so many protein-rich snacks require refrigeration, Simply Snackin allows me another alternative without the worry of spoilage.”

 -Lisa Bunce, Registered Dietitian, Owner Back to Basics Nutrition Consulting, Connecticut

“The many flavors--including my favorite Teriyaki Beef Sirloin with Pineapple, provide wide ranging taste appeal and variety.”

"The Simply Snackin dried beef and chicken strips are one of the best tasting protein rich snacks I have ever tasted.  The many flavors--including my favorite Teriyaki Beef Sirloin with Pineapple, provide wide ranging taste appeal and variety.  I keep them in my drawer at work in case a meeting runs late and I can't run out to get lunch."

“It's definitely not an ordinary jerky!”

Well, on Gourmet Jerky snacks....I was a little skeptical at first with the unique flavors, but they taste great!  They are low-fat, low-calorie and a good source of protein.  It's definitely not an ordinary jerky!  The flavors are almost exotic!

 -Jennifer Nolte, Fitness Model Competitor

“Its Flavorful, low in calories and asodium, and actually gives the breakdown on sodium, fat, protein, and carbs. You DON’T get this with most jerky. “

“I am 40 years old and have been weight training and bodybuilding for over 20 years. I have always enjoyed jerky over the years and use it as a source of efficient protein. I recently discovered Simply Snackin jerky and can honestly say, it's the best in the business. It is flavorful, low in calorie and sodium and actually gives the breakdown on sodium, fat, protein and carbs. You don't get this with most jerky. Though they have many tasty flavors, my favorite is Beef Sirloin. I would recommend any of the product line from Simply Snackin as all their products keep the health conscious in mind. I look forward to any new products they may introduce to the business.”

 -Jim Sirek, Competitive Bodybuilder

“Who would of thought that blueberries, cranberries and sirloin were a match made in jerky heaven?”

The Simply Snackin' Gourmet meat snacks are at the top of my grab-and-go, low calorie snacks list.  They are a creative and filling mix of sweet and meaty.  I was a little apprehensive about trying some of the combinations.  Who would of thought that blueberries, cranberries and sirloin were a match made in jerky heaven?  The snacks are also moist and easy to chew.  I keep a couple packages in my purse and use them to tide me over in between meals and to provide a protein boost before working out.  I've even broken out some of the fruity mixes for a quick breakfast. 

I distributed these meat snacks at a recent Weight Watchers 5k walk and social and several walkers couldn't believe these were 50 calories each! How convenient for those of us who calculate every calorie we consume.  I'll be sure to keep my cupboards stocked and spread the word.  I want this fantastic product in the Midwest markets!

“There is no Jerkin' with this Treat, You can bite it and eat it without making faces : )”

“As a Personal Trainer and a mom these snacks are great!  Great source of protein, easy to travel with and they do not hurt the teeth.  You can enjoy them.  They are flavorful, chewy and very satisfying.  As a Trainer, I recommend them for snacks at work, a errand day, for kids in any sports, right after a workout if you can't get the protein drink in, and for snacks for kids at home, school or travel.  They beat any chip snack or any other jerky snack.  There is no Jerkin' with this Treat, You can bite it and eat it without making faces :)   Enjoy and Keep them on hand.”

 -Tammy Thyssen- Personal Traininer, Wisconsin

“A fantastic alternative to a bag of chips or other junk food that actually offers me a chance to take in some protein.”

“These meat snacks are pretty darn tasty and a fantastic alternative to a bag of chips or other junk food. This actually offers me a chance to take in some protein.I love the burst of flavor. It’s not just a hint of flavor lost amongst the meat, there’s an actual jump up and “BAM!” of flavor. There are two designated periods in my day that I simply can’t miss. They can be summed up in two words: Snack Time. Rest assured there is usually a chicken snack from Simply Snackin in one of them.”
