"Pemmican is a meat product principally comprised of a mix of dried meat&fat [] Purported high nutrient & caloric density & product robustness have merited pemmican a rich history as a food for Indigenous communities, fur traders, explorers & the military"

"Stefansson (1957) was a strong proponent of pemmican, & called the interest demonstrated towards it during WWII the “Second Pemmican War”. He described the studies undertaken as a revolt of modern dietitians against the traditional dominance of pemmican as an emergency ration."
"Stefansson gave clear recommendations for the use of pemmican believing it should only be an emergency ration and eaten in lesser amounts than would like to be eaten. He also believed that plain pemmican was the best"
"Stefansson maintained that in the ideal pemmican, fat should supply 70–80% of the calories with the balance of 20–30% from the lean. A gradual adjustment to pemmican was suggested, of not more than 1000 cal the first day & divided into at least four meals"
