-Pemmican is a concentrated food consisting of dried pulverized meat, dried berries, and rendered fat. It was invented by the native peoples of North America, and widely used during the fur trade and later by Arctic and Antarctic explorers such as Robert Falcon Scott as a high-calorie food. Properly packaged, it could be stored for long periods of time. The specific ingredients used in it were usually whatever was available; the meat was often bison, moose, elk, or deer, the fruit saskatoon berries, though cherries, currants, chokeberries and blueberries were also used. The very best pemmican is made from lean meat and bone marrow fat; the pemmican buyers of the fur trade era had strict specifications. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pemmican
