Do you mean using Slim Jims right out of the package, as is, for Gram controls? 
 What is in those things - sounds like a food safety issue!

Years ago (70's and 80's) Slim Jims were used as Gram pos & neg controls in all 
the labs at AFIP.

Off the wall question, I have been told that slim jims (pepperoni stick) at the 
gas station can be processed and used as good gram controls. Has anyone done 
this and do they work for GMS also?

Thank you,
