It was a food invented by the Native Americans, who depended on it when traveling on long and adventurous journeys when food was scarce, or when there simply wasn’t time to hunt and gather enough to eat. That was a lesson well-learned by many early European settlers, explorers and fur traders in North America.
Explorers through the ages have made a special food a staple in their diet that is high in calories and very rich in fat. So high in fat that it would make dietitians cringe, yet so nutritious that hard working men in arctic conditions have thrived on little else for many months without ill effect.
Just what is this magic food that keeps men fit and is so easy to make? The best survival food is pemmican.
