Cram was a biscuit-like food made by the Men of Lake-town and Dale, which they shared with the Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain. It was very nutritious, and was used for sustenance on long journeys, for example by Bilbo Baggins and the Dwarves in the latter part of the Quest of Erebor. However, it was not flavorful like its Elvish counterpart, Lembas. Cram is said to have kept fresh indefinitely.[1]
