Poll: Slim Jims

[The Bum]

I used to eat them every day now when ever i look at one i hear a squeaky voiced kid yell "NIJAS!"

Also for any staff reading this please keep the rockband ads, at least they don't make me want to hurl myself off a bridge.

I love some Slim Jims. I like bagged beef jerky better, but Slim Jims are pretty good. The only thing I don't really like about them is the fact that, after I eat one, my breath smells awful.

But I'm so glad I joined the Publisher's Club. Now if only Cracked had a PubClub so I wouldn't have to see those terrible Newcastle Brown Ale commercials...

 

[Oomii]

My friend gave me a Slim Jim one time, I am not a fan.

 

[MelasZepheos_v1legacy]

What's a Slim Jim? Must be an American thing.

I may have had the British equivalent (if there is one) but I've never even heard of Slim Jims.

 

[Chancie]

I actually like Slim Jims quite a bit. Yeah, they're kinda nasty if you really look at them (greasy and semi-"fake" jerky) but they're pretty good still. Obviously, I prefer actual beef jerky, but if you hand me a Slim Jim, I'll still eat it. xD

Slim Jims would be awesome if they actually snapped loudly like they do in the commercials. Sadly they do not, so I have no need to eat them.

The WWE commercial is still pretty terrible though.

BOOOONESSSAW IS READYYYY...TO SNAP INTO A SLIM JIM!

(okay, I really shouldn't be mixing references like that, but Randy does make me chuckle...)

I was thinking of this when I read the OP.
OT: I'm eating one right now and I love Slim-Jims, my favorite are the mild kind.

 

[Naheal]

I tried one. Not the best.

 

[s0m3th1ng]

Probably the worst thing from a convenience store I have ever put in my mouth.

...Interpret that however you like.

But seriously...nasty, nasty, nasty. They probably aren't even made with real meat.

 

[PayneTrayne]

Coca-cola and two Slim Jims, the breakfast of champions.

 

[Skorpyo]

Slim Jim's have always tasted, to me, like greasy paper. With skin.

Haven't had one in a decade (and yes, I keep track).

I prefer Moon-pies with a Mtn. Dew Voltage for all of my gaming needs.

 

[zehydra]

I enjoy them tremendously. Though I have to agree with others, their advertising sucks. Lol, they don't really need to advertise anwyay.

 

[Mumonk]

The only thing second to beef jerky is Slim Jim.

 

[Tdc2182]

I immediately thought "Most ballsy add campaign ever".

Anyone remembered when they claimed they gave you ass destroying stomach aches and medicine would just get its ass kicked by the offspring of the most likely parasitical SlimJim?

Hell, they taste alright.

 

[Someperson307]

Slim Jims are amazing, and if you think otherwise, well maybe you shouldn't be alive. Or you could give them a chance. You dont know what you're missing. Put me in a room with a Slim Jim and it will be passing through my digestive system within seconds. One of the best snack foods ever.

 

[Brutal Peanut]

The few I've had , have always been mushy , greasy, and tasteless. I haven't had one in years, and wont waste the money on re-trying them to see if they've changed. I am 99.9% sure, they haven't.

Also, what if I spend the money to re-try one, and find out, they've somehow gotten worse?

No thank you. *crosses arms and looks away*

 

[TheTim]

they sell pretty cheap at costco, so i eat them.

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

I hate Slim Jims but I find the commercials are perhaps the perfect advertisement for the product. They represent an excellent metaphor for both the flavor and the health content!

 

[Z(ombie)fan]

they are proof that god isn't real/nice at all.

if he was, then the people who made that ad would be publicly humiliated via lightning spheres.

and slim jim taste bleh in comparison with ... what is it called? jack meats? yeah.

 

[omicron1]

They have the most low-tech advertisements... seriously, the "ninjas" scene causes great annoyance every time I see the photoshopping.

Don't like the taste of 'em at all. They're like jerky but with too much spice and a less satisfying texture.
