The brands from both sources have different characteritics in flavor profiles. While many of them are very close in texture, I put this on they all use pretty close to the same meat and smoking processes.<br />Private labels companies make recipe changes for each customer, it is not a business whereas a brand has only 4 choices.Byteithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18382677408769807444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134710340137592050.post-40714258658832316932010-07-27T05:18:16.541-07:002010-07-27T05:18:16.541-07:00Thanks for a great site, Steve.
Despite your Dog ...Thanks for a great site, Steve.<br /><br />Despite your Dog Treats characterization, I've been enjoying Mirab's jerky as sold by Dollar Tree and Walgreens for about a year. A recent purchase from Dollar Tree both looked and tasted notably different (softer and a bit sour). A second purchase a few weeks later also yielded the apparently revised version. <br /><br />Walgreen's jerky is now also softer then previous but, based a single sampling, I wasn't able to decide if it also has the same sour/tangy as Dollar Tree's.<br /><br />Buyers should note that, despite these significant--and, to my mind, unpleasant--changes, both Dollar Tree and Walgreen's still market this as their Original jerky.<br /><br />Perhaps yours readers can comment on other changes in Mirab-produced jerkys.Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9134710340137592050.post-44846793743921145662010-07-21T06:04:57.028-07:002010-07-21T06:04:57.028-07:00Private labels means: the content of the packages ...Private labels means: the content of the packages are the same as leading brand and the different are the name of the labels.

Mirab might make a lot of jerky under different names. But to each private labeler they did it so it would be there brand. Is it neccesary for you to divlulge this information?
