One judge commented on the seletions, “Jed’s Mango was a delicious mixture of spices and fruit. It just melted in my mouth. The right amount of chewing and sweetness. My mouth waters at the thought of Matt-Hat Black Truffle, and the Fat Cow Pickle had an enticing flavor, while Old Farm Foods offered a nice pleasant texture and flavor. Of course, the Pescavore styles were a welcome change from just beef or pork jerky. I like the light flavors of the fish.”
