Items Details
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do the sticks stay fresh without a cooler on a day hike?
The individually sealed 1.15 oz sticks are shelf stable and require no refrigeration, so they stay safe in your pack for a full day of hiking in normal conditions.
Will the sticks melt or get soft inside a hot backpack?
They are cured meat sticks with a low moisture profile, so they hold their texture in summer heat far better than cheese, chocolate, or fresh jerky alternatives.
How much protein do I get per stick when I am burning calories on the trail?
Each stick has 12g of lean turkey protein, which is enough to refuel between long climbs or during a multi hour backpacking stretch.
Are the sticks light enough to justify the weight in a thru hiker pack?
At about 1.15 oz per stick and roughly 80 calories, the calorie to weight ratio is strong, and the protein density makes them efficient fuel per ounce carried.
Do I need to pack out any extra packaging waste?
Each stick is a single small wrapper. They are easy to flatten, and you can double bag used wrappers to meet Leave No Trace pack out guidelines on the trail.
Is this a good snack to bring on a multi day backpacking trip?
Yes. The 10 count multi pack offers enough sticks for several days of lunches or trail breaks and stays safe without a cooler in bear resistant food storage.
Can I eat these at high altitude without upsetting my stomach?
Chomps are made from real turkey with no sugar alcohols or heavy seasoning blends, so they tend to be gentle on the stomach compared to many energy bars.
Will the natural beef collagen casing hold up in freezing temps?
The collagen casing is flexible in cold weather, so the stick will not crack or shatter like some hard jerky when temperatures drop on a summit push.
How does Chomps compare to traditional beef jerky for hiking?
Chomps use turkey, which is leaner than most beef jerky, and the stick format is easier to eat one handed with trekking poles or gloves than wide jerky strips.
Is this better than trail mix for sustained energy on a long hike?
Trail mix is high in sugar and fat. Chomps deliver protein with zero sugar, which many hikers find gives steadier energy on the uphills and fewer sugar crashes.
How does Chomps compare to energy gels for trail running?
Energy gels are almost pure fast carbs. Chomps are slower burning protein and real meat, which works better for long hike fuel and less ideal as a mid race gel replacement.
Is turkey jerky a good fit for a keto thru hiker?
Yes. With zero sugar, low carbs, and 12g of protein, Chomps fit standard keto macros and travel well without refrigeration on long distance trails.
What if the sticks get crushed at the bottom of my pack?
The cured stick format and individual wrapper hold up well to compression. Toss a few in your hip belt pocket so you can eat them before they take any real abuse.
Are the sticks safe to eat on a hot summer campsite day?
Yes. Because they are shelf stable cured meat, you can leave them in the car or tent all day during normal camping conditions, unlike cheese or fresh meat snacks.
How should I store Chomps before and after opening?
Store the unopened multi pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Each individually wrapped stick stays fresh without refrigeration until its best by date. Once opened, finish the stick and reseal the rest of the multi pack.
Can I freeze the sticks for longer term storage?
You can freeze unopened sticks to extend shelf life. Thaw them in the fridge overnight before eating for the best texture, though they are also fine to eat straight from thawed packaging.
How long is the shelf life of a Chomps 10 pack?
Unopened Chomps sticks are shelf stable for many months from the manufacture date. Always check the best by date printed on the back of the multi pack before eating.
Are Chomps compatible with a keto macros tracking app?
Yes. Each stick has 12g protein, 0g sugar, and about 80 calories, which scans accurately in most keto and macro tracking apps that include Chomps in their database.
Do the sticks work with a Whole30 approved meal plan?
Yes. The Original flavor is Whole30 approved. Check the individual flavor packaging for the most current certification, since the Jalapeno and Pepperoni Turkey variants may differ by production run.
What is included in the 10 count multi pack?
You get 10 individually wrapped 1.15 oz sticks. Flavor splits depend on the variant you order, such as Original, Jalapeno, Pepperoni Turkey, or a mix of the three.
Are these sticks safe to eat during pregnancy or while nursing?
Chomps are cooked, shelf stable, and free from added nitrates and nitrites, which many pregnant and nursing customers appreciate. Always review the ingredient list with your own provider for personal guidance.
What if my order arrives warm or the seal looks loose?
Chomps are designed to be shelf stable, so brief warmth in transit is normal. If a stick is damaged, swollen, or off smelling, contact customer support for a replacement or refund.
How is Chomps different from regular beef jerky?
Chomps are turkey based, sliced into stick form rather than strips, and use a natural beef collagen casing. They are also certified Keto, Paleo, and Whole30, which most standard beef jerky is not.
