In an imaginary twist of history, Attila, the ruler of the Huns, was invited to endorse a brand of spicy jerky that would satisfy the hungry AP World History students. As shown in the photo of Attila on a horse, the rumor was that the Huns had found a way to preserve and temper the meat stick such that it had attained strength and toughness comparable to his fabled Sword of God (of course then such a meat stick is no longer edible). Considering that the Huns were steppe nomads and most likely ate mutton, cheese, and milk as the majority of their diet, this was probably not a too far-fetched arrangement.
