Why are there so many discussions about beef jerky in the Epstein files?

I saw a conspiracy-laden YouTube video about it that I won't link because I'm not sure I'm buying what he is selling (apparently cannibalism) but I did do a search of the files https://www.justice.gov/epstein/search

It just seems a little weird how often it comes up. Fifteen internet pages worth. Over a number of years.

I think they might just be talking about girls. Though that "just" still seem pretty horrible. Or who knows whatever else it might be?

The whole thing is just nauseating. I used to like beef jerky.

take the vague or esoteric posts and make something out of the "crumbs" either individually or collaboratively.

That sounds like that is what this person has done, and it is a behavior best avoided when possible. We don't need to be searching about for additional meaning or clues, the plain uncontested unvarnished truth is bad enough and voluminous enough already.

We know for a fact that Jeffery was part of a conspiracy to traffic children so it's not exactly the same thing.
Although from what I have seen they just speak in vague terms but kind of openly about their crimes. Stuff like ‘all the girls will be under 25’ wink wink etc.
