Brand Calls on Community to Help Spread
Awareness with #FindFastMeat
CHICAGO, Dec. 19,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Slim Jim, America's iconic
protein snack, has had its custom Nissan Z, known to fans as Fast
Meat, stolen. The car was on the move as part of an ongoing
partnership with the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), making
recent stops in Chicago for the
Survivor Series event before traveling on to L.A. for a custom
video shoot. The stolen car was last seen in California.
While the active police investigation is underway, the brand has
put out the #FindFastMeat call to their loyal fan base, the Long
Boi Gang, to help spread awareness of the stolen car. If anyone has
tips or spots the custom Slim Jim car, Fast Meat, they're
encouraged to place a tip with the Los
Angeles Police Department at
https://www.lacrimestoppers.org/.
"We knew we had something special with our custom car, but had
no idea it would be in such demand that someone would steal it,"
said Ashley Spade, VP & General
Manager, Snacks at Conagra Brands. "We continue to work closely
with the authorities and we ask anyone if they spot it to report it
to the LAPD."
The tricked-out ride had caught the attention of car enthusiasts
and fans in recent months for sought-after features such as a fiery
exterior, custom yellow leather interior, LED under carriage
lighting, an exclusive Slim Jim holder for on-the-go snacking, a
one-of-a-kind Slim Jim dispenser in the glove box stocked with Slim
Jim meat sticks and some Easter eggs for the most loyal of fans,
such as a fabric interior with 69s, a hidden 420 and the Long Boi
Gang emblem to show love to the Slim Jim Community. There's also
the added appeal that all of the customizations were done by one of
Hollywood's most iconic custom
auto shops.
