I love beef jerkey but if you've ever read the back of most of them they are loaded with all kinds of weird ingrediants.

I've been thinking about picking up a dehydrator to make some turkey or chicken jerky as a snack when I go out. Does dehydrating the meat have any negatives besides the obvious water reduction?

Anyone have any experiances using one of these machines or use jerky in thier diet?

Good idea... I'm curious about this as well. Anyone done this?

It's pretty easy to make homemade jerky in a standard oven. Check the bodybuilding.com forums, there are a few recipes floating around.
