Easter is normally all about the eggs, but the Beef Jerky Outlet in Buford is hoping to add a different kind of protein into the mix this year.
The store is offering customers the chance to build a custom "Beef-ster Basket," featuring kangaroo, alligator, venison and elk jerky, as well as optional lollipops with scorpions inside, chocolate-covered crickets and gummy rats (don't worry -- they're all candy). You can also include kid-friendly flavors such as Honey Barbecue and Sweet Cherry Maple.
"The idea is to pack in the protein to avoid a sugar rush that has kids hopping around more than the Easter Bunny," a press release stated.
Sugar vs. beef -- it's a new battle for the ages.
