I know SafferBabe posted this a couple of years ago, but beware of a trap-door I recently found.

I don't know if this is the same across all instances but in Sainsburys, their Beef Biltong (made by a company called 'Unearthed') is 1.1g carbs per 100g - so the 40g pack is a great snack.

On the flip side, the Sainsburys 'Wild West' Beef Jerky is about 22g carbs per 100g (13g per 57g pack). Unbelievable difference. God only knows what they put in it, but it's probably cured in sugar-water or something.

Beware.
