</infobox> Pemmican Bar is a Food And Drink item in The Long Dark. It is learned after acquiring its unique Recipe Card.

Overview

It is only acquired when trading with the Trader for the Recipe Card of the same name.

Cooking the ingredients generates four (4) bars, each weighing 0.0625kg (stacking up to 0.25kg for all 4).

Increased carry weight (Unburdened) (+3kg for 3 hours)
Increased maximum stamina (Nourished) (+15% for 3 hours)
Positive Fatigue increase (15%)

Pemmican Bars do not produce Scent, and are the lightest food item in the game, as well as the most calorically dense food item. This makes then an excellent food for traveling and maximizing carry weight.

Crafting

Pemmican Bar is a recipe that can be created in 2 different containers.

Trivia

Real world Pemmican is quite famous for lasting a very long time (from 6 months to several years). It is often used in very poor survival situations, and is often typically associated with the diets of various Native American tribes or being used by American Voyager settlers.
Pemmican is typically composed of dried meat pounded into a coarse powder or mash, then mixed with an equal amount of melted fat and cooked. Occasionally, berries are added to the mix (Rose Hips are used in game).
