Meat the Candidates – The Making of Barack Obameat and Meat Romney

In honor of the upcoming election, Jack Link’s Jerky partnered with mosaic artist Jason Mecier to create 3D portraits of President Barack Obama and the presumptive Republican candidate Mitt Romney, both made entirely out of Jack Link’s meat snacks. The portraits, dubbed Barack Obameat and Meat Romney, each took Mecier approximately 50 hours to produce.

Mecier used a variety of flavors including Jack Link’s Original Beef Jerky, Jack Link’s Turkey Jerky, Jack Link’s Sweet & Hot Beef Jerky, Jack Link’s Original Smokehouse Beef Jerky and more to build each savory salute to the year’s biggest race.
