MINONG, Wis. — Jack Link’s, the undisputed leader of real meat protein snacks, has unleashed Carnivore Bites. What the heck are Carnivore Bites?
We’re talking 65 pieces that come in dangerously flavorful Original and Teriyaki options, packed with 10-grams of protein in every serving. That’s more than five dozen pieces of real meat protein for a suggested retail price of $19.99, delivering monster value in a world where every dollar counts.
But Carnivore Bites bring more than flavor and value. They’re made with 100% real beef, which contains, zinc, iron, and key nutrients that support muscle, bones, and immune health. In short: big protein, big benefits, big value.
“We never stop pushing to give our consumers more of what they want, real protein and real value,” said Holly LaVallie, SVP of Marketing and R&D at Link Snacks. “Carnivore Bites are the next step in that mission as people are expecting more from their food while they watch their budgets closely.”
This product is the latest innovation from Link Snacks, one of the world’s leading real meat protein powerhouses. In 2025, the company announced DUOS under the Jack Link’s brand which pairs two bold, awesome flavors in one bag. In 2025, the company also launched a partnership with leading social media creator and philanthropist, MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson) on a co-branded product line with Jack Link’s aimed to grab the attention of the next generation of snackers with protein options like multi-pack sticks available in turkey, beef and zero sugar varieties.
Carnivore Bites are already staking their claim in select convenience stores, with more shelves nationwide soon to be conquered. Dive into Jack Link’s full arsenal of meat snacks at www.jacklinks.com.
