You know what I mean - a stress snack is something you want to gnaw on or crunch when you're working under a deadline -- something with more flavor and less resistance than your pencil (ouch! was that the metal eraser band?).
I first tried Soy Jerky at Green Festival in 2006 -- I approached with trepidation, but found that they actually taste pretty good. There is a wide variety of flavors, and the jerky does tend to be on the more tough/hard scale (as opposed to the weird texture of say a Slim Jim).
Their packaging leaves a bit to be desired though -- it's just a solid mass of vacuum sealed plastic and I know there must be a better way.
Just be careful to not overdo it with the soy -- and snack away.

Ive been a vegetarian for about 7 years now and the one thing I missed badly was beef jerky. Then I found out there was soy jerky so I have tried many different kinds, and this stuff wasn't really up to standards compared to the rest. I liked the texture of it, very hard and chewy, but the taste wasn't great and it left a weird after taste in my mouth. If you want the best soy jerky I would try Tofurky Jurky, It is awesome!

Soy is a very good source of protein and other nutrients. I really enjoyed the taste and texture. It is very nutritionous and I recommend it for anyone to try it!

I love it! The texture satisfies my oral fixation and the taste gives me a kick.

I tasted Tasty Eats soy jerky products never having tried soy jerky before, and expecting an utterly unsatisfactory vegetarian version of beef jerky. Better to just leave jerky to the meat-eaters, was my opinion. But the Tasty Eats jerkies are pretty good. The Hot & Spicy in particular was nice, but across the board the texture of the jerkies is remarkably similar to that of good old fashioned beef jerky.

I don't eat beef anymore because I don't trust its safety, and for general health reasons. But I used to love eating beef jerky.
Not all soy-based "meats" are up to snuff, but this is. All the flavor and texture without any of the crap, or mad cow.

When I went vegetarian, the taste and convenience of jerky was something I really missed. But then I found Soy Jerky. It's great, it comes in several flavors, and most of them are delicious!
Whether or not you like beef jerky, this is a great high-protein, low fat snack. I often keep a package or two in my desk drawer at work for an afternoon snack. The packages look small, but they'll last for a few days worth of snacking. The taste and texture is similar to beef jerky, but more tender and less gristly. Tasty Eats makes 8 different flavors, so you're sure to find one that suites you.

When I saw "soy jerky" I thought it just sounded weird, but I thought: I like soy (soy milk, soy beans, tofu) and I like jerky, usually of the beef variety, so I approached the booth. Taste test--YUM! Tasty Eats Soy Jerky has the satisfying chew of beef jerky but the healthy steroid-free mad-cow safe benefits of soy! I will be picking up more of this stuff in the stores.

I loved the Teriyaki and the Original flavors. The Peppered flavor left me coughing. Literally! Yummy stuff.
