Instead of giving you a long drawn out answer, I will provide you with a link to the information. http://www.jerky.com/, go to the History of Jerky link on the left side of the page to find out everything you need to know about storing it safely away.
Hopefully this helped.

Beef jerky is made up of proteins.
Well, it shouldn't be if it is *beef* jerky, but one never really knows, does one?

Beef jerky
Jerky is also called jerked meat, jerky is meat (usually beef) that is cut into long, thin strips and dried (traditionally by the sun). Jerky was a popular staple with early trappers, just as it is with today's backpackers because it keeps almost indefinitely and is light and easy to transport. It's quite tough and salty but is very flavorful and high in protein. It is made of horses meat duh!!
No, beef jerky is not a starch. It is a dried meat product made from beef, which primarily consists of protein and fat. Starches are carbohydrates found in foods like grains, potatoes, and legumes. Therefore, beef jerky does not contain significant amounts of starch.
