“ | I thought it was only a kind of cram, such as the Dale-men make for journeys in the wild. | ” |
–Gimli, Gimli in The Fellowship of the Ring |
Cram is a food made by the Men of Dale, mentioned in The Hobbit and The Lord of Rings. It is a sort of equivalent to Lembas as it was used by Dale-men for long journeys; however, unlike Lembas it was bland and flavourless.
When eaten, cram restores 6 () hunger points.
Obtaining
The Dale-men had strong trade relations with the Dwarves of Durin's folk, and therefore Cram can be found naturally spawning in Dwarven structures, such as a Dwarven house. Iron Hills merchants sometimes also sell it.
Cram is not currently craftable.
Future
When the Dale faction is added, Cram will be craftable on their crafting table.
