In ancient Korea, yukpo a thin-sliced dried beef was made for royalty. The cut, the grain, and the drying time had to be perfect. We apply the same level of precision for plebs not royalty.

"Natural flavors" is a regulatory category that legally allows almost anything derived from a natural source, so seeing it on an ingredients list tells you it was added for flavor but not what it actually is.

Our beef bits last 18 months on a shelf with no preservatives, probably even more if not opened and stored in a cool dry place. It's all due to real dehydration done using unrefined sea salt with no additives.

Most commercial jerky marinades use sunflower, canola, or soybean oil because they are cheap and stable at industrial temperatures. Needing them is a signal that the beef being marinated cannot stand on its own.

GM!

Did you know in 1967, the Sugar Research Foundation paid Harvard nutritionists Mark Hegsted and Fredrick Stare $6,500 to write a literature review for the New England Journal of Medicine.

The review blamed dietary fat for heart disease and minimized any role for sugar. The SRF had helped shape the research question before the review was conducted. The funding was not disclosed in the published paper.

Hegsted later helped design the 1977 US dietary guidelines that told a generation to eat less fat and more carbohydrates. The original correspondence surfaced in archived documents fifty years later.

Soy sauce shows up in most jerky marinades because it adds umami depth to beef that doesn't have enough flavor on its own, and if the beef needs that kind of help before it gets sold, the quality problem started a long time before the marinade.

Salt doesn't just season the beef. It draws moisture out through osmosis, which supports the drying process. Beef and salt are not just an ingredient list, it's the complete process.

Unrefined Atlantic sea salt means the trace minerals stay in through all of it. When salt is doing real work in the product, the quality of the salt matters more, not less.

2026-04-10T10:34:19Z

In 1972, Finland launched the North Karelia Project, a large-scale government health campaign built on Ancel Keys's fat hypothesis. The project told Finns to cut red meat and saturated fat and replace them with carbohydrates. It ran for decades, was promoted by Finnish health authorities, and was cited internationally as evidence that the low-fat dietary model worked.

How much of the cardiovascular improvement in the region was dietary, how much was smoking cessation, and how much was improved medication access has never been cleanly separated. Finnish cattle farming continued regardless. The farmers kept doing what they had always done.

Bitcoiners stopped trusting institutions to manage their money. The same skepticism applies to the ones managing their food.

The second ingredient in beef bits is unrefined Atlantic sea salt, and most people have never thought about what that distinction means.

Refined table salt is processed to remove impurities, which also strips out trace minerals that occur naturally in seawater. Unrefined sea salt still has them. When salt is the only seasoning in the product, the quality of that salt is not a detail you can overlook.

The Sugar Research Foundation funded researchers to counter his findings.

By the time Yudkin died in 1995, his thesis had been largely dismissed by mainstream nutrition science. The documents proving the coordinated campaign were published in JAMA Internal Medicine in 2016.

The word salary comes from salt. Roman soldiers were paid in salt (salarium) and marched on salsamentum, salted preserved meat that lasted weeks. We dry ours with Bitcoin miner heat in Finland. Same principle. Different century.

Our btcbutcher (nprofile…2cqn) has run Kotitila since 2012, sources Finnish grass-fed beef from small domestic slaughterhouses, and makes the same product he would want to eat himself, which is why it ends up with two ingredients and nothing on the label that needs explaining.

Why does every "keto snack" need 14 ingredients? Beef doesn't need rescuing. It doesn't need flavoring, tenderizing, or preserving. It needs heat and salt. That's the whole job.

Everything else on the label is there to cover for the source material.

Ancel Keys did a study titled the Seven Countries Study in 1955 where he presented his hypothesis, diets low in animal fat protected against heart disease and that a diet high in animal fats led to heart disease.

Keys started with twenty-two countries and selected seven. The fifteen he excluded include France and West Germany, countries with high-fat diets and low heart disease rates. They contradicted the hypothesis so they weren't in the study.

This study became the definitive citation in official dietary recommendations for the next forty years, telling people to avoid saturated fat.

We're still living in the aftermath. Low-fat everything. Seed oils. A food pyramid built on omissions and lies.

Every shortcut in this business has been available since day one. Add preservatives and ship globally. Use a commercial dryer for larger batches. Add sugar for the mass market.

Every one of those options was looked at and turned down. Not because it couldn't be done. Because doing it meant adding something at the cost of quality, and that's where the line is.

Sugar is in most commercial jerky to extend shelf life and hit the sweet taste palate that mainstream consumers expect, and if you have been eating jerky your whole life thinking it was a savory product, check the label because it is closer to candy than it looks.

Sound money. Simple food.

The same instinct that rejects inflation in your wallet tends to reject additives in your food. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

About 5,000 years before Bitcoin Beef Bits, the Sumerians were preserving meat with salt and sun between the Tigris and Euphrates, and the clay tablets they left behind include some of the earliest food preservation instructions ever recorded by anyone.

Five thousand years later, the principle is exactly the same. We swapped the Mesopotamian sun for Bitcoin miner heat, but the principle hasn't changed. Only the heat source has. ☀️⚡

Keto asks: is it low-carb enough?

Carnivore asks: is it animal-based?

The whole thing started when a guy with a miner walked into Kotitila, the butcher shop in Helsinki where btcbutcher (nprofile…2cqn) has been sourcing and working with Finnish beef for years, and realized the heat coming off the ASIC miner was the right temperature for drying meat.

GM!

The same institutions that managed monetary policy for fifty years also set the dietary guidelines, and both turned out to be shaped less by the available evidence and more by who was funding the research and who benefited from the recommendations.
