| | Seattlest: Say It With Meat |
 | | We suggest a visit to the Oberto Factory Outlet, a store clogged with a staggering array of discount meat snacks. |
 | | The Oberto Sausage Company is the nation’s largest jerky concern, and its Rainier Avenue outlet seems to carry every possible variety: beef, pork and turkey, cured and seasoned in myriad flavors (original, spicy, teriyaki, hickory, BBQ, taco, mesquite, etc.), and packed in bags, cans, and jars of all sizes. |
 | | Italian immigrant Constantino Oberto set up shop on Dearborn in 1918, and in 1953, his son Art moved the business to a larger plant at the current Rainier Avenue location. |
