I'm "that girl" that has a million and one jobs or hobbies. I'm a paramedic and firefighter, I like hiking, I pole dance, I run a bakery and tea party company, I have a great dane, I'm a crazy plant lady, do all the fine arts, avid reader, etc... you name it, I've done it or am busy doing it. So I'm actually really upset to say that I don't have these super yummy snacks in every place I frequent...yet. Though I've already hidden one of each on both my ambulance and fire truck -- just dont tell the others ;)
I'm not a huge fan of meat in general because the texture, and I struggle with GERD/heartburn on things like slim jims. These roam sticks though? Absolutely no issues, even with the jalapeno! The texture is great, the taste on the regular and jalapeno are both fantastic. They don't get stuck in your teeth either. I could literally chop these up and put them on a charcuterie board and people would think it's the best they've had.
I like knowing what I support is ethical and considerate to the planet, so I really appreciate the company values. The health issues I struggle with can be exacerbated by what I put in my body, so it's nice to know I'm getting exactly what's on the package.
Packaging itself is great and I definitely expect it to hold up well in hiking and camping gear. Super easy to open too, which I appreciate with having said medical issues that make things like that difficult sometimes when in flare ups. They packed it with a hand written note too. I appreciated the tall boxes they come in, as that makes it easy to keep neat in the pantry for grab and go snacking.
I have a box of each at home as well as at my station for right now and everyone has been asking where to get more after they try some! I initially got them to take with me on longer hikes or camping, but I fear they won't make it that long hahaha. This will be my go-to protein snack from now on. I'm just sad I can't eat a whole box at a time.
Looking forward to the possibility of more flavours in the future, as I am allergic to pineapple and can only enjoy the regular and the jalapeno for now.
After the first roam stick I tried, I already decided it was going to be a staple in my snack repertoire going forward. RM.
