 ==Origin==
-Cram is a type of food in the Middle-Earth setting of [[J.R.R. Tolkien]], where it is biscuit-like with some vaguely [[Wikipedia:hardtack|hardtack-like]] qualities. Cram is made by the human inhabitants of Lake-town and Dale and shared with the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain - while much less flavorful compared to elven lembas, cram is still very nutritious and is said to keep fresh indefinitely, making it viable sustenance on long journeys. In ''The Hobbit'', Bilbo Baggins and the dwarves keep themselves fed with cram during the latter part of the Quest of Erebor; in ''The Fellowship of the Ring'', Gimli eats a tiny portion of a lembas cake expecting it to be a similar type of cram, but takes a liking to the food and eagerly finishes it.
