"The (beef jerky) Contest"



We are on a quest. We intend to inventory all the convenience stores on our weekend routes for the greatest number of beef jerky selections. Although we say "beef" jerky, we are open-minded enough to also count kangaroo, ostrich, little baby bunny rabbit, and pork or even chicken jerky (or would tht be "jerk chicken", Mon???).

Note to non-MadNorSkis: Although we would appreciate your identification of Wisconsin locations with large selections, do not bother to submit your own counts to us. This is an OFFICIAL CONTEST and must be verified by an OFFICIAL MadNorSki Junior jerky counter.
(Note: Those of you with your own contests:.......Don't bother. Stay home. Leave this technical work to we professionals.)

Note to fellow seekers of jerky: You will generally find more selection in northern Wisconsin. This is just a generalization & may not prove true with further research & sampling. Stay tuned.
