Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Jack Link's Beef Jerky Teriyaki scores 68/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 0g fiber, 7g protein and 4g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Jack Link's Beef Jerky Teriyaki lists 11 ingredients, starting with Beef, Brown Sugar, Water, Soy Sauce and Wheat. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

50 kcal per serving, or 278 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores Jack Link's Beef Jerky Teriyaki on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 68/100 Jack Link's Beef Jerky Teriyaki lands mid-scale — below the typical score in deli & cured meats, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in deli & cured meats is Simply Nature Organic Uncured Beef Hot Dogs at 100/100.
