Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Summary: wow, these were actually hickory smoked! The smoky flavour is strong, the slices are thin and nicely textured, and the edges had a slight chew that I really enjoyed. I would definitely buy this product again and I'd feel confident serving it to non-veg folks.

Good ingredients and a pretty decent nutrition profile save for the sodium content. 300mg seems fine, but when you add the sodium from your bread and condiments (e.g. mustard, mayonaise), it would add up really quickly. Still, this is too delicious to care. I actually usually have only 2-3 slices in my sandwiches, so the sodium content isn't too much of a problem.
Can't wait to try the other flavours!!
