Radroach Meat (Fallout: New Vegas)

Radroach meat is a food item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The meat is the whole abdomen of a radroach. Since radroaches appear less frequently in Fallout: New Vegas than in Fallout 3, radroach meat is more difficult to find. The effects of radroach meat in Fallout: New Vegas are notably different: It restores a small amount of hit points, but gives a high dose of radiation, in addition to a -1 penalty to Strength.

Location

 * On the bodyguards for hire in Freeside
 * In one of the Nellis hangars
 * In the REPCONN test site's basement
 * In the Nipton Hall
 * Sometimes found on members of the Legion
 * Sometimes found on super mutants

Cut irradiated version
Within the game files exists a version of radroach meat, that gives 18 rads instead of the normal 10. It was supposed to be dropped by the irradiated radroach, but by cutting the creature from the game, this variant of the meat was cut as well.
