American Ostrich Farms, an Idaho-based company, has launched a new line of ostrich and beef snack sticks that are now available on Amazon and directly from the company’s website. This marks a significant step for the firm as it seeks to introduce its unconventional red meat to a broader consumer base.
The snack sticks, available in Original and Jalapeño flavors, are designed to be a familiar and convenient snack option. Each stick contains 9 grams of protein and ranges between 60 to 70 calories, depending on the flavor. The sticks are also gluten- and soy-free, and do not contain added MSG or artificial food dyes. According to Alex McCoy, the founder and CEO of American Ostrich Farms, the goal was to make trying ostrich as easy as opening a snack.
Ostrich, a bird known for its red meat, has a rich flavor and texture similar to beef. It is naturally lean and rich in iron, making it a high-quality protein source.
American Ostrich Farms raises its ostriches on a 120-acre ranch outside Boise, Idaho. The company processes the sticks at its co-located USDA-inspected facility, ensuring a connection to the source and the ability to follow the product from the ranch to the finished stick.
The launch of the snack sticks represents a significant move for American Ostrich Farms. While the meat has traditionally been sold as specialty cuts, these shelf-stable sticks are designed to open the market to a wider audience. The sticks can be easily packed for lunch, carried to the gym, or stored in a desk drawer, making them a convenient snack option for consumers.
The snack sticks are available on Amazon and AmericanOstrich.com. Each stick delivers 9 grams of protein, 60 to 70 calories depending on the flavor, and less than 1 gram of sugar. The sticks are gluten- and soy-free and made without added MSG or artificial food dyes. The launch marks the first shelf-stable, ready-to-eat product from American Ostrich Farms and represents a significant step in the Idaho company's effort to move ostrich beyond specialty cuts and into everyday American eating occasions.
