Eating a cram ration gives the message "This cram ration is bland".
Dwarves gain an additional 100 nutrition from cram rations as of NetHack 3.6.1.
Non-cursed cram rations are never rotten, which makes them a safer option than most other comestibles if you must eat while hostile monsters are nearby—this can be particularly useful during the ascension run or an encounter with Famine.
Encyclopedia entry
If you want to know what cram is, I can only say that I don't
know the recipe; but it is biscuitish, keeps good indefinitely,
is supposed to be sustaining, and is certainly not entertaining,
being in fact very uninteresting except as a
chewing exercise. It was made by the Lake-men for long journeys.
