Theres a tesco not far from me that carry a huge range of wild west and jack links jerky , don't know if these are the same as in the states but DAMN its some good jerky .
well kinda all depends on a person's area. Over here there is jerky in like EVERY gas station. So you'll always see stuff like jack links and another that I cant think of the brand right now. Then you might have some regional type stuff and *sometimes* local stuff.
Yeah get ya , as you said in regards to the beers theres plenty little breweries popping up rounds by me recently and some do a real nice beer.
