What makes Carnal's beef sticks clean?

Carnal's Black Truffle & Black Garlic Beef Sticks are made from 14 recognizable ingredients — beef, black garlic, celery powder, real black winter truffle, and ten more a cook would recognize. No fillers, no MSG, no corn syrup, no soy. Each stick: 8g protein, 0g sugar, 1g carb, 100% beef, naturally cured.

The label, in full.

Every word on the back of the pack:

Beef · Water · Black Garlic · Salt · Citric Acid · Celery Powder · Green Onion Powder · Black Radish Root Powder · Black Pepper · Sundried Tomato Powder · Shiitake Mushroom Powder · Black Truffle Oil · Black Winter Truffle Powder · Coriander

Fourteen, and they read like a recipe — because they are one.

Meets the checklist. Outgrows it.

  • 0g sugar
  • 1g carb
  • 8g protein, 100 calories
  • 100% beef — no pork casings
  • Naturally cured with celery powder (no sodium nitrite)
  • No MSG, no corn syrup, no soy, no fillers
  • Keto-friendly

Built for keto, by recipe.

0g sugar, 1g carb, 8g protein, 100 calories — keto macros that come from the recipe, not from subtracting things back out. If you came looking for a zero-sugar or keto beef jerky, the honest answer is this stick: 0g sugar on the label, real ingredients behind it, and real black truffle inside.

100% beef. No pork casings.

Most meat sticks run in a pork casing. Carnal doesn't. If you avoid pork, this stick was built for you. (We don't carry a halal or kosher certification. What we can promise: no pork, anywhere in the recipe.)

Clean is the floor, not the ceiling.

Plenty of sticks can claim a short ingredient list. None of them were engineered by Michelin-trained chefs around real black winter truffle and fermented black garlic. Clean is where Carnal starts. Flavor is where it pulls away.

Read the label. Then taste the difference.

Fourteen ingredients, a chef's recipe, nothing else.
