Pepperoni?

So I know that pepperoni is not the best option because it has a lot of fat but I'm apprehensive about trying turkey or chicken pepperoni. At the stores near me, I can only buy a big bag for about 8.99 with about 25 pepperettes in it. I used to love pepperettes but I would hate to buy the big bag and find out after eating only one that I don't like them and have wasted $9.

So, my questions are, do you like turkey or chicken pepperoni? What are your favourite brands? Do you know if I can buy slices (like for making pizza or the pepperoni chips)? Do you know of anywhere that sells individual pepperettes so I could buy one to try?

Thanks everyone!

I've tried many of the brands people have mentioned here and I hated them all and ended up wasting a lot of money on them.  Lots seem to like them but I simply cannot acquire a taste for them.  Perhaps you attend a support group and someone may give you one to try?

 Oh! That's unfortunate you wasted so much money. That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid. Maybe I'll ask at the next support group meeting if anyone eats turkey pepperettes and wouldn't mind bringing one for me to try. Thanks!

If you want to try one at a time I would suggest maybe going to market where you can purchase just one.

 That's what I've been trying to do but all the grocery stores near me only sell them in bulk packages. Their deli counters only carry individual pork pepperettes.

You don't have like an actual market around where you live? Like where vendors come in and sell there goods?

 I really like the Pillers Turkey Pepperettes especially the spicy ones ... I was  surprised how good they are.

LOVE the Piller's turkey pepperettes.  50 calories and 6 g of protein each; a great afternoon snack, with a few berries or grapes...

 I second these. They're delicious. I don't like the pepperettes, they're kind of both hard and greasy or have too much smoke. I just don't like them, but I use these to make my flatbread pizza sometimes.
