Cram is a consumable item in Fallout 4.

Background[]

This section is transcluded from Cram. To change it, please edit the transcluded page.

Cram is processed meat that was produced in large quantities before the War in easy-open pull tab tins. In their distinctive blue tins, they were meant to address food shortages in the United States as well as provide a meat ration for soldiers serving during the Sino-American War. Because of Cram's long shelf-life assisted by excessive preservatives, it's still edible over 200 years later and is useful to both survivalists and NCR troops, who can be found with Cram as rations in Fallout: New Vegas.[Non-game 1]

Characteristics[]

Cram is found in a variety of locations in the Commonwealth and can be purchased from the city traders and traveling merchants. Although cram will heal 25 points of health, it adds 5 points of radiation, which can be lethal if consumed in large quantities.

Cram's presentation is a parody of Spam, down to the same style of packaging and font. In Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, it was shown to come in a cardboard box, instead of Spam's signature tin can. In Fallout 4, its container was changed to a tin can full of the meat substance with a pull tab to open the container, further likening it to its real-world counterpart.

  1. Fallout: The Roleplaying Game Rulebook p.153: "A tin of processed meat produced in vast quantities pre-War to address food shortages and serve as a meat ration for soldiers. The tin, with an easy-open pull tab, helps keep the contents preserved for long periods, making Cram more useful for survivalists and those scavenging for food"
