Humans. Only humans. Chicken Butt Jerky is real human food — a protein snack for people, made to USDA human-food standards at our USDA-inspected co-packer (Est. P-47928). The question comes up because most "chicken jerky" search results are pet treats — we're the other kind. And please don't share with your dog: every flavor is seasoned, salted, and spiced for human palates, and our spice blends, sodium levels, and curing salt aren't formulated for pets. If your pup needs a treat, pick one made specifically for dogs.
