Meat Jerky

Meat jerky is a type of food in Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics.

Background
The foremost producers of meat jerky are the Dunton brothers in Klamath. Their Dunton's Drymeat is well known for its durability, when assaulted with teeth, and its special secret ingredients. It is mmm-mmm good. In fact, so good that some animals will home right in on it.

Fallout 2

 * The meat jerky can be used as bait for geckos, allowing to avoid being attacked or to leave them vulnerable.
 * The dog running around in Klamath can be fed with a jerky to get the key to the Rat Caves.
 * The poor boy Cody in New Reno on Virgin Street can be given a piece of jerky for good Karma.

Behind the scenes
The meat jerky is a reference to the American FastFood chain KFC, as the Dunton brothers refer to it as "finger-lickin' good", a term that is also used by the chain.
