You blackmail a dude that sells carved up people on sticks as food, hiding it under the guise of Iguana. You push the man into financial and mental collapse to the point where he takes his own life. how is that not dark? Do you eat babies for breakfast?
They lived on the coastline. The coast was hit hardest by the nukes. Helen... Is Helen now under the alias Daisy? That same Daisy with the shabby dead lover story in good neighbor? Omg. And the kids...
Bob: Nice job Louise, how do you manage to find all this meat? Louise: Don't worry about that dad just take it in and cook us up some dinner, alright? Tina: I feel bad that we killed Mr. Pesto and took his meat for dad to cook up. Louise: He was being torn apart by a mirelurk when we found him Tina, nothing we could do. Tina: But we had at least a dozen stimpacks on us, we could have... Louise: Tina, Tina, don't go thinking about details, and what we COULD have done. We COULD have sold Jean to those slavers for a few hundred caps, but we didn't. Tina: Okay. Do you think Mr. fischoeder will let us into fischoeder tower one of these days. Louise: If he likes our food enough, and we can't do that unless we get more meat!
Theory: "Iguana" does not literally mean JUST "Iguana." Maybe lizards in general are similarly mutated? Anoles, Bearded Dragons, Chameleons, even ACTUAL Iguanas changed into a general "lizard" shape which came to be referenced as "Iguanas" by the gen pop?
@Chip No way they woud let a Raider with human corpses stay at Tenpenny. I mean same for Megaton, but at least there'd be a way to smuggle shit into Megaton.
Joe O'Colit You poor soul. But yeah he's in Fallout 1 through 3; he's the guy with the tree growing from his head due to... play the games I don't want to spoil a great reoccurring character.
Less then a minute into the video, already the word "iguana" has lost all meaning in my mind. Iguana iguana iguana iguana iguana Iguana iguana iguana iguana iguana Iguana iguana iguana iguana iguanaIguana iguana iguana iguana iguana
ummmm, there are no squirrels int he game either but they're apparently everywhere as well.... can't all just be human meat since there aren't a whole hell of a lot of people around :P Or maybe like the small game animals, all of the random nameless people that you see can't all be implemented into the game with free roam or spawn points because the developers didn't care :P
So there's human flesh, iguana on stick, and whole iguana on a stick? Fallout has to step up the game like throw some mutant squirrels racoon and some actual iguana.
*SKYRIM* NPC - "People are being eaten!" You - "So what?" *FALLOUT* NPC - "People are being eaten You - "OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Rejicorn ! Pretty reasonable conclusion as Fallout has way less people than Nirn due to the nuclear war. Anyone who has the mindset of killing and eating someone else is seen as trying to reduce the already reduced human population. Plus you have deathclaw and molerats to eat. So you ain't that desperate.
That’s because Skyrim doesn’t give you any reason to care about anyone. Fallout you can find a story for most of the people in the game, besides just some random ncr soldiers or gamblers.
This man over here figuring out the story of iguana bits While I'm trying to find out where the hell I told Dogmeat to stay at Edit: Holy Crap I didn't know this many people liked my comment thanks!
Guys I found him he was in this random building somewhat near diamond city I had to fight alot of ghouls to try in find him yet he was right near I was
Loved the fallout 1 part! I think iguana bits are made of anything, not just human. I think iguana on a stick is actual iguana brought in from area with iguanas or maybe breeding farms in pet stores. Maybe the reason in fallout 4 it's not an iguana is because the commonwealth is too far from Mexico/the west, so that iguana stick could be other meat, or just lower quality iguana from the trip.
Martin Aguerrevere I was thinking the same thing, i don’t think any of the named meats are what they claim to be. Iguana meat (excluding the actual iguana on a stick) squirrel meat etc. are likely just called that as it sounds better than rat meat or radroach meat or mutant and ghoul meat. Really i think it should just be called ‘meat’ but they’ll likely keep it as Iguana to reference back to FO1.
idk when you see the iguanas on a stick in 3 and nv they look like green iguanas to me and those are tropical so they're probably just imports iguana bits on the other hand who tf knows outside of fo1
Darksoul The Dragon same, but i thought it was from baby deathclawsn, coz iguanas are small lizards, and Deathclaws are some kind of huge lizards you know?
Oxhorn, here's the tip: to get unarmed, and thus, avoid pissing off the guards either in Fallout 1 or at the NCR in Fallout 2, you only have to free up ONE weapon slot and make it active, and you will be seen as unarmed by anyone. So, if the fight starts, you don't have to spend APs to get your weapons outta the inventory - just switch weapon slots by round button on the left, and you're back in action! Hey, you can even put a Stimpack, or some other battle chem as Psycho, in second slot and walk around with that in hand - you will still be seen as unarmed, as it's not a weapon. In other words, NPCs just don't see your inactive weapon slot at all, even if you have a Minigun in it, they only see the active slot
5:36 that option is actually there, it shows up when you try to enter the doctor's lab, at night, without permission (since the doctor isn't in the upstairs area).
There are a lot of potential sources for the meat, if we substitute "Iguana" for "Lizard" and vice versa. Many words and meanings were lost, and mish-mashed when soceity was re-building. "Iguana" might have turned into an Inverse Corn Fallacy. (Corn is a generic word for grain, all the Corn that you see are varieties of Maize, but the term was appropriated for Maize, as settlers had no idea what to call it, on first contact with the new grain crop. Ergo, the "Corn Fallacy" is using a generic word, to substitute for the specific. The inverse is easily seen in popular branding. Like plaster bandages all being called Band-aids, or frosted toaster pastries all being called Pop-Tarts.) Of course, Iguana on a Stick, might be a recipe, where any reptile or common scrap meat is used. And we all know that cannibles are usually hunted and killed, so the idea of such a recipe, remaining as human meat, would mean its eventual downfall.
I figure it just became slang for meat coming from questionable sources or you don't really know the source of. Like I imagine it'd be something you say about meat you're not really sure about like this. Wastelander 1: God I'm not really sure about this meat. Wastelander 2: You better hope that's not iguana bits. **Laughter**
I think you're right. Iguana-on-a-stick actually is an iguana. At least looks like one. Still, considering the level of education in wastelands, settlers most probably refer to any edible reptile as "iguana". Iguana bits, on other hand, are just pieces of meat. And then there is the fact that iguana bits are much, much easier to find than Iguana-on-a-stick. By the time of Fallout 3\NV\Fo4 "Iguana bits" are slang for "maybe molerat, maybe rat, maybe mirelurk, something else" kind of meat. The kind of meat that you buy when you have like 20 caps in your pocket and didn't eat in three days.
I figure it's more likely that "Iguana bits" just became slang for meat from questionable sources. Like after he was found out it may have started out as slang for people trying to pass of human meat as something else and then slowly it evolved to meaning meat that you're not really sure where came from. Because it seems very unlikely to me that a single man can make a business so successful that it basically has a larger reach than any organized faction we ever see. What seems way more likely is that the story traveled by word of mouth around the former US and it became slang.
*"Enter the basement and then talk to Morbid, and he will accuse the Vault Dweller of trespassing. If he is then told to wait, claiming to be more powerful than him, he will offer a deal, in which, should the Vault Dweller agree, an eye will be removed, dolling out the Eye Damage status effect and setting Perception to 1. Speaking to him again afterwards, will cause for him to become immediately hostile."*
The iguana bits inconsistency can be explained by only 1 thing : Bethesda lack of big picture thinking when it comes to continuity of the canon lore (its not their game universe !! Interplay made it!!). The same goes for Jet, which is a POST-war drug. Was created in the timeline of Fallout 2(you even meet the creator in New Reno !!). But can still be found in sealed Pre-War vaults and sealed artifacts in FO 3 and Fallout 4. Even the drug dealer in Sanctuary mentions jet in his computer, PRE WAR... Makes. NO.SENSE.
Yea, I mean in Star Wars Old Republic there's a shifty dude you meet on Hutta that asks you if you want to buy some spice (Star Wars generic term for drugs) and rattles of a few popular spices, then says he invented them all. Then he says he needs your help stopping a sale of a guy that is giving the hutt a better deal than he can on the spice.. you can help him, or you can turn him in... If you turn him in he rolls over... So, yea this shifty little nobody invented the most popular spices in the Star Wars galaxy? Doubtful. Could easily be the same with the Jet (or even if it wasn't, Bethesda has made it so)
Mr. Coffee glad I'm not the only one to notice this. also, the guy in Sanctuary had a chem station behind his house. I could make a whole theory on this!
Its also possible that its not actual human meat. Like how facial tissues are called Kleenex by many people, regardless of the brand used. A similar thing could be happening here, where meat on a stick or meat in a can became known as iguana, just because it was so popular in the hub, which in fallout lore is a massive settlement, if not the largest settlement in fallout history, which would make it easy for rumors to travel with caravans and wanderers. We know Kellogg came from that area, and is very very old, (he was the one who took Shawn as a baby and when the player confronts him, he looks the same) so maybe his time in the common wealth was enough for all the people there to call it that. Then its not much of a stretch to say caravans carried the idea to the capital wasteland.
A brand or popular item becoming synonymous with all items of a similar nature is a common occurrence but you don't fuck about when it comes to identifying meat - this is why humans are called humans and cows are called cows, to avoid accidental consumption of people. Remember kids, if it only says meat, just say no!
Then again, wasteland isn't exactly the best place to get picky about your meat-habits, so ignorance of the specifics of your mystery meat might be best left unknown- after all, when times are tough, people are starving, and there are convenient corpses lying around~~ Well, things might happen, and Iguanas might walk onto sticks.
Yeah its the same how the word mirelurk is used for different creatures like mutated crabs, lobsters, and frogs. Someone somewhere called a mutated sea creature a mirelurk and it spread to where its used to describe any aquatic mutated creature
You'd think we'd find iguanas in New Vegas, it is after all a desert. Either that's some extra subtle sarcasm, or I'm afraid you have no clue what an iguana is.
"The green iguana’s extensive range comprises the rain forests of northern Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean Islands, and southern Brazil." -National Geographic
well yeah but it's not like gecko is only made of steak slabs, besides the iguana bits in game look too large and chunky to have came from an iguana or any creature smaller than a gecko
My same exact thought, may be people in the Capital Wasteland or in the Commonwealth they know it as Iguana while on the other end they name it Geckos. But, then again, Geckos seem to be native and only found in the Mojave and some in Zion Canyon... I'd like to think I'm eating gecko meat and not... well... horrid stuff
One year later : Bob : So you again ? You : Yep, and I'd like to... Bob : Renegotiate the prices again, don't you ? You : Yes, now I'd like 7500 caps per 5 days. Me : he must do a real good business! 😂
Lord Solaire imagine driving the price up over several years, every 5 days. You could get up to 100,000 caps inexplicably every 5 days. Now I haven’t played fallout 1 myself so I’m not sure if there’s any sort of waiting system but if it has one imagine just waiting 5 days, saving before you talk to him, getting your caps, then negotiating the price up and repeating until you get some crazy price like that. What a way to make money
@@FlashKillerX actually you can't get it that high or at least it's very unlikely because at some point he will kill himself because of reasons? I would say because he had too much guilt of that and he's not making as much money anymore because he has to pay you to keep it a secret

Let's all just stop for a moment and appreciate how good the frase "watch yourself around the doc, and i dont have to go medival on your face" is. Had me laughing out loud.
The trend from "Iguana bits" got so popular it was only a matter of time someone else opened the same product under a different name, look on fallout 4 wiki iguana & squirrel bits. They are EXACTLY the same only Iguana bits being worth more than squirrel as it's an old trusted product, just think of it as: Iguana bits - made in USA, Squirrel bits - Made in China. Creepy shit, indeed. One should expect such degeneracy in an lawless world, sadly...
Koolisid Why? Iguana bits were first on the market, if you're referring to USA over China products I just took that as an rough example pointing out that China dishes out all products that exist on the planet but with a questionable quality. I should've put like German over China as they were known in the past for their quality products, especially military ones further back in the past.
I'm pretty sure an npc in New Vegas mentions that the iguana stand did get shut down at some point. Apparently people found out what was going on when customers started getting "The Shakes" which is something normally only found in cannibals.
WAIT Oxhorn! I found I minor flaw in what you said. I live in the Everglades in Florida on the EAST coast and there are iguanas everywhere. Possibly they could have spread up through Florida and up the East coast.
ChewingToothpick and tobar from point lookout claims to have traveled up along the east coast. I find it easy to believe that there are other merchants using watercraft to travel up along the east coast to transport goods
I remember when I discovered fallout on my uncle's old desktop in about '02 and it was one of the best games I played, to this very day, (nowadays I might be considered biased due to nostalgia or fond memories of my childhood), but Fallout and Fallout 2 are some of the best in the series, with the exception of needing to spend action points to do anything, then having the thrilling combat ("You missed" "Slaver missed" "Slaver hit you for 10 hit points" "You missed" "Slaver missed" "Oops! Slaver hit Slaver for 5 hit points." "Slaver hit you for 10 hit points" "You died"), but really, the first two games were some of the best games from the 90's along with Doom, Mario 64, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and Pokemon
Woahh relieved my character don't eat much iguana. But he eats a *shit load* of Squirrel (on a stick)... now I'm wondering if it's even from 'squirrels' ^^
I always assumed that iguana on a stick was exactly what the name suggests, iguana chunks cooked on a stick and left behind by some Latin-American apocalypse survivors. It may not be well known but in parts of South America iguana is a delicacy.
there were food shortages before the bombs fell, so maybe iguana was raised as a foodstuff since slightly before the apocalypse. or maybe the name "iguana bits" (and "squirrel bits" for that matter) is a more palatable way to refer to mystery meat :-) lol, and why is no one selling mole rat chunks instead?
The removing the eye story is true!! When I was a lot younger, I jumped onto my step brothers computer to mess with his game. I didn't know what game it was, but i was clicking around and went into a building to talk to a man. The man said a bunch of stuff I don't remember, and then it told me he took one of my eyes. I got a little freaked out, and my brother was angry at me. :D
I always assumed that someone brought up a bunch of iguanas from Mexico and started a farm. Caravans could spread it around for merchants to sell. Would probably be pretty lucrative considering all the other meat options.
BlueDiamond I saw a documentary on a Russian high security prison and one of the inmates admitted to butchering, cooking, and eating a person, and even tricking his neighbours into eating some. None of them liked it.
Iguana meat could easily be Gecko meat. You find Geckos everywhere, in each of the games but Fallout 4, so maybe wandering traders or merchants bring Gecko meat into the commonwealth. Maybe Iguana bits/Iguana on a stick was a food product from before the bombs dropped and someone continued its legacy.
WalkMan you raise a great point also don’t forget squirrel on a stick in fallout 3 and new Vegas. You don’t see squirrels but people are eating them and in tenpenny tower when you ask the woman at the restaurant what’s tenpennys favorite meal is she says “an iguana bits sandwich with the crust cut off and a peeled pear on the side” we don’t see bread or pears either but clearly tenpenny is eating them guys
There is literally a video explaining the origins of iguana bits, where they came from, the quest about them, you are watching it, and you choose to ignore it to make your own hypothesis to make yourself feel better. Wow. Those are some sturdy blinders you have on there.
The fallout universe is inconsistent. Its no longer human meat, don't worry. Bethesda employees have obviously never played Fallout 1 and 2. because there is a clear break in the lore between Fallout 1,2 and 3,4.The iguana bits inconsistency can be explained by only 1 thing : Bethesda lack of big picture thinking when it comes to continuity of the canon lore (its not their game universe !! Interplay made it!!). The same goes for Jet, which is a POST-war drug. Was created in the timeline of Fallout 2(you even meet the creator in New Reno !!). But can still be found in Pre-war sealed vaults and sealed artifacts in FO 3 and Fallout 4. Makes. NO.SENSE.
Or you could just, you know, extrapolate a bit to explain inconsistencies using logic. From Myron we learn that the reason brahmin crap is used in Jet is because meat companies used a protein extract for growing food that got contaminated to feed their herds, ancestors to the later brahmin, and that this contaminated extract acted like amphetamine when consumed by a human. It isn't much of a stretch to imagine some enterprising pre-war dealer got his hand on the stuff and started bottling his own drug, almost exactly the same as Jet if perhaps not for the name. Or it's possible Myron is claiming credit for this invention when he's the one who copied it from said pre-war drug dealer. Certainly seems consistent with what we know of the guy.
I've always been of a mind that, it's not necessarily ALL dead people, but rather a slang for just random meat. I say this especially after seeing the jar of meat chunks from Fallout 4 labeled iguana meat. I figure it's alot like critter bits, basically random bits of trap meat you just throw together from the catches that got thrashed too much or partially fouled.
About the pet thing, there already is a population of feral iguanas on the East coast in Florida and have been since halfway through the 20th century that are descendants of escaped or released pets they're just a non-native invasive species so nothing lists them as "Native to Florida" or to the US for that matter.
It was cool seeing fallout one. I don't think a lot of people of actually seen fallout one, and don't know a ton about it. I would personally love to see some videos on it. Keep up the good work!
You also find a metric asston of squirrel meat, but there are no squirrels. I wish you could find radsquirrels in Fallout 4, wouldn't it be cool to hunt small game with a shotgun?
i think its funny how oxhorn trips the trap, it detonates, and his character takes it straight in the face without flinching but Ian gets sent straight on his keister around 11:02
I find it highly unlikely that Iguana Bob's legacy would have endured for so long over so great a distance. That being said, the mere chance of it makes me hate you for ruining one of the best survival mode foods and hate myself for watching the vid in the first place. Some people believe ignorance is bliss. I am not one of those people.
SUBJ3KT 17 the hub is one of the big cities of the NCR, so it might be considered important. Same way Americans across the states are aware of places like in-n-out burger or white castle. Even if those places aren't across the states
thanks, gotta think about real world comparisons. and it is easy to think that iguana bob's business becomes a fully fledged industry as he was there at the founding of the hub.
0:49 You... do know that iguanas don’t live in deserts, right? They live on coasts and islands. They would dehydrate instantly in a desert. They can even swim. There aren’t exactly many flowers to eat in a desert, either.
you're talking about the green iguana... The desert iguana on the other hand... (which does reside in the Mojave Desert and is pretty common there) is a species of iguana that does live in the desert.
@@Thewoobler76 yeah, they prefer leaves though. I wrote flowers because there aren’t exactly any vines and not many trees. Flowers are more common in that setting.
I haven't even in survival in fallout 4. i hunted radstags, brahmin, mole rats,whatever but i stayed away from any buyable food or "pre-war" food as i play a sort of nomadic playthrough of the game everytime. I recommend it to it's quite fun
However, in the original Fallout, it's revealed that Iguana on a stick is human meat, but Iguana Bits, not on a stick, is actually Iguana. That's why you don't find any, they are no longer found in the wild as they were eaten, and as such are now only found in farms.
You don't find any iguanas because they are all on a stick.
This stands to reason.
Fair enough

ummmm, there are no squirrels int he game either but they're apparently everywhere as well.... can't all just be human meat since there aren't a whole hell of a lot of people around :P Or maybe like the small game animals, all of the random nameless people that you see can't all be implemented into the game with free roam or spawn points because the developers didn't care :P
In most things in this setting, meat from a strange/unknown source is usually human meat
So there's human flesh, iguana on stick, and whole iguana on a stick? Fallout has to step up the game like throw some mutant squirrels racoon and some actual iguana.
Matt Williams lame
My survival mode character realising he has been feeding on human meat for 60+ days:
*SKYRIM*
NPC - "People are being eaten!"
You - "So what?"
*FALLOUT*
NPC - "People are being eaten
You - "OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Rejicorn ! Pretty reasonable conclusion as Fallout has way less people than Nirn due to the nuclear war. Anyone who has the mindset of killing and eating someone else is seen as trying to reduce the already reduced human population. Plus you have deathclaw and molerats to eat. So you ain't that desperate.
There are human hearts in Skyrim, correct?
As an ingredient?

*Preston Hated that*
That’s because Skyrim doesn’t give you any reason to care about anyone. Fallout you can find a story for most of the people in the game, besides just some random ncr soldiers or gamblers.

Welcome to Fallout? (Bethesda lore makes it to easy)
What if iguanas evolved to bury in the ground, and popped out to eat children and that's why you never see them
that got... dark
its a video about mass cannibalism, i think child eating iguanas are the lightest of subject matters presented rn
Father Walrus Nat should watch out then
Didn't New Vegas already has giant Geckos, including ones that breath fire.
this is Canon
This man over here figuring out the story of iguana bits
While I'm trying to find out where the hell I told Dogmeat to stay at
Edit: Holy Crap I didn't know this many people liked my comment thanks!
Now the name dogmeat doesnt sit right with me
dogmeat probably straying around at one of house compound area, to the southeastern of santuary, or in any doghouses around.
Guys I found him he was in this random building somewhat near diamond city
I had to fight alot of ghouls to try in find him yet he was right near I was
I had the same prob. I found him in outside of diamond city he was in the trash can
I can't find my X-01 Quantum, help.
Loved the fallout 1 part! I think iguana bits are made of anything, not just human. I think iguana on a stick is actual iguana brought in from area with iguanas or maybe breeding farms in pet stores. Maybe the reason in fallout 4 it's not an iguana is because the commonwealth is too far from Mexico/the west, so that iguana stick could be other meat, or just lower quality iguana from the trip.
Martin Aguerrevere I was thinking the same thing, i don’t think any of the named meats are what they claim to be. Iguana meat (excluding the actual iguana on a stick) squirrel meat etc. are likely just called that as it sounds better than rat meat or radroach meat or mutant and ghoul meat. Really i think it should just be called ‘meat’ but they’ll likely keep it as Iguana to reference back to FO1.
Whatever helps you eat the stuff.
*munch*munch*
idk when you see the iguanas on a stick in 3 and nv they look like green iguanas to me and those are tropical so they're probably just imports
iguana bits on the other hand who tf knows outside of fo1
I mean... on the east coast they could just get iguana from florida
The wiki says there are iguanas in the game..
I just thought it was deathclaw meat

Darksoul The Dragon same, but i thought it was from baby deathclawsn, coz iguanas are small lizards, and Deathclaws are some kind of huge lizards you know?
@@lucasvarelagutierrez2508 they're mutated alligators... I think.

@@Jose-xh5qb deathclaws are genetically modified experiments made from the USA to to use in war actually. Idk where i read that but i did.
Oxhorn, here's the tip: to get unarmed, and thus, avoid pissing off the guards either in Fallout 1 or at the NCR in Fallout 2, you only have to free up ONE weapon slot and make it active, and you will be seen as unarmed by anyone. So, if the fight starts, you don't have to spend APs to get your weapons outta the inventory - just switch weapon slots by round button on the left, and you're back in action! Hey, you can even put a Stimpack, or some other battle chem as Psycho, in second slot and walk around with that in hand - you will still be seen as unarmed, as it's not a weapon.
In other words, NPCs just don't see your inactive weapon slot at all, even if you have a Minigun in it, they only see the active slot
Thanks for the advice
5:36 that option is actually there, it shows up when you try to enter the doctor's lab, at night, without permission (since the doctor isn't in the upstairs area).
There are a lot of potential sources for the meat, if we substitute "Iguana" for "Lizard" and vice versa. Many words and meanings were lost, and mish-mashed when soceity was re-building. "Iguana" might have turned into an Inverse Corn Fallacy. (Corn is a generic word for grain, all the Corn that you see are varieties of Maize, but the term was appropriated for Maize, as settlers had no idea what to call it, on first contact with the new grain crop. Ergo, the "Corn Fallacy" is using a generic word, to substitute for the specific. The inverse is easily seen in popular branding. Like plaster bandages all being called Band-aids, or frosted toaster pastries all being called Pop-Tarts.) Of course, Iguana on a Stick, might be a recipe, where any reptile or common scrap meat is used. And we all know that cannibles are usually hunted and killed, so the idea of such a recipe, remaining as human meat, would mean its eventual downfall.
Mirelurk.
Brian Halphin see this makes perfect sense and we know that lizards can get fucking huge in the Fallout universe
I figure it just became slang for meat coming from questionable sources or you don't really know the source of. Like I imagine it'd be something you say about meat you're not really sure about like this.
Wastelander 1: God I'm not really sure about this meat.
Wastelander 2: You better hope that's not iguana bits.
**Laughter**
I think you're right.
Iguana-on-a-stick actually is an iguana. At least looks like one. Still, considering the level of education in wastelands, settlers most probably refer to any edible reptile as "iguana".
Iguana bits, on other hand, are just pieces of meat. And then there is the fact that iguana bits are much, much easier to find than Iguana-on-a-stick. By the time of Fallout 3\NV\Fo4 "Iguana bits" are slang for "maybe molerat, maybe rat, maybe mirelurk, something else" kind of meat. The kind of meat that you buy when you have like 20 caps in your pocket and didn't eat in three days.
Brian Halphin Hey im mexican and is it wierd how english speakers say maize they say it like "maze" while its pronuced "maw-yee-z" ;))))
If I remember, I'm pretty sure you could make Iguana food using Gecko meat in New Vegas

Poopy McFartass I'll keep that in mind what I'm playing Fallout 2. lol

I figure it's more likely that "Iguana bits" just became slang for meat from questionable sources. Like after he was found out it may have started out as slang for people trying to pass of human meat as something else and then slowly it evolved to meaning meat that you're not really sure where came from. Because it seems very unlikely to me that a single man can make a business so successful that it basically has a larger reach than any organized faction we ever see. What seems way more likely is that the story traveled by word of mouth around the former US and it became slang.
I like this theory. It makes sense.
In Brazil we call questionable meat "cat meat"
Here in the US we just call that Chinese food
That's lacist
well im glad i don't eat "questionable meat"(or any kind of radiated meat at all) in fallout 3
Obsidian really likes their Soylent Green references
this reminds me of the guy selling goul meat in fallout 4. mabye he took a page from iguana Bob too.
Longneck Lukowski was a scoundrel in Fallout 4. I offed him after I learned what he did, and took trader Rylie in Sanctuary.
To be fair dude's feeding the people with a glowing one so that's extra yikes
*"Enter the basement and then talk to Morbid, and he will accuse the Vault Dweller of trespassing. If he is then told to wait, claiming to be more powerful than him, he will offer a deal, in which, should the Vault Dweller agree, an eye will be removed, dolling out the Eye Damage status effect and setting Perception to 1. Speaking to him again afterwards, will cause for him to become immediately hostile."*
Is this how you get the surgery he was talking about that he couldn’t activate?
Sucks that you can’t remove his eye instead.
The iguana bits inconsistency can be explained by only 1 thing : Bethesda lack of big picture thinking when it comes to continuity of the canon lore (its not their game universe !! Interplay made it!!). The same goes for Jet, which is a POST-war drug. Was created in the timeline of Fallout 2(you even meet the creator in New Reno !!). But can still be found in sealed Pre-War vaults and sealed artifacts in FO 3 and Fallout 4. Even the drug dealer in Sanctuary mentions jet in his computer, PRE WAR... Makes. NO.SENSE.
Yea, I mean in Star Wars Old Republic there's a shifty dude you meet on Hutta that asks you if you want to buy some spice (Star Wars generic term for drugs) and rattles of a few popular spices, then says he invented them all. Then he says he needs your help stopping a sale of a guy that is giving the hutt a better deal than he can on the spice.. you can help him, or you can turn him in... If you turn him in he rolls over... So, yea this shifty little nobody invented the most popular spices in the Star Wars galaxy? Doubtful. Could easily be the same with the Jet (or even if it wasn't, Bethesda has made it so)
Mr. Coffee glad I'm not the only one to notice this. also, the guy in Sanctuary had a chem station behind his house. I could make a whole theory on this!
2 words: Time Travel.

...he is a "little person"... MIDGET is such a bad word! lol
20:28 it's not nearly infinite because at some point he kills himself
Wait really?
If we keep pestering and blackmailing him long enough, he will commit suicide.
Its also possible that its not actual human meat. Like how facial tissues are called Kleenex by many people, regardless of the brand used. A similar thing could be happening here, where meat on a stick or meat in a can became known as iguana, just because it was so popular in the hub, which in fallout lore is a massive settlement, if not the largest settlement in fallout history, which would make it easy for rumors to travel with caravans and wanderers. We know Kellogg came from that area, and is very very old, (he was the one who took Shawn as a baby and when the player confronts him, he looks the same) so maybe his time in the common wealth was enough for all the people there to call it that. Then its not much of a stretch to say caravans carried the idea to the capital wasteland.
A brand or popular item becoming synonymous with all items of a similar nature is a common occurrence but you don't fuck about when it comes to identifying meat - this is why humans are called humans and cows are called cows, to avoid accidental consumption of people.
Remember kids, if it only says meat, just say no!
Then again, wasteland isn't exactly the best place to get picky about your meat-habits, so ignorance of the specifics of your mystery meat might be best left unknown- after all, when times are tough, people are starving, and there are convenient corpses lying around~~
Well, things might happen, and Iguanas might walk onto sticks.
Yeah its the same how the word mirelurk is used for different creatures like mutated crabs, lobsters, and frogs. Someone somewhere called a mutated sea creature a mirelurk and it spread to where its used to describe any aquatic mutated creature
This makes me feel a lot less disturbed.

Peanut Butter there is gecko steak in nv
well yeah but it's not like gecko is only made of steak slabs, besides the iguana bits in game look too large and chunky to have came from an iguana or any creature smaller than a gecko
My same exact thought, may be people in the Capital Wasteland or in the Commonwealth they know it as Iguana while on the other end they name it Geckos. But, then again, Geckos seem to be native and only found in the Mojave and some in Zion Canyon... I'd like to think I'm eating gecko meat and not... well... horrid stuff

Lord Solaire imagine driving the price up over several years, every 5 days. You could get up to 100,000 caps inexplicably every 5 days. Now I haven’t played fallout 1 myself so I’m not sure if there’s any sort of waiting system but if it has one imagine just waiting 5 days, saving before you talk to him, getting your caps, then negotiating the price up and repeating until you get some crazy price like that. What a way to make money
@@FlashKillerX actually you can't get it that high or at least it's very unlikely because at some point he will kill himself because of reasons? I would say because he had too much guilt of that and he's not making as much money anymore because he has to pay you to keep it a secret

What about squirrel bits? I have yet to see a squirrel in Fallout 4.
The trend from "Iguana bits" got so popular it was only a matter of time someone else opened the same product under a different name, look on fallout 4 wiki iguana & squirrel bits. They are EXACTLY the same only Iguana bits being worth more than squirrel as it's an old trusted product, just think of it as: Iguana bits - made in USA, Squirrel bits - Made in China. Creepy shit, indeed. One should expect such degeneracy in an lawless world, sadly...
2veki I’d expect it the other way around XD
Koolisid Why? Iguana bits were first on the market, if you're referring to USA over China products I just took that as an rough example pointing out that China dishes out all products that exist on the planet but with a questionable quality. I should've put like German over China as they were known in the past for their quality products, especially military ones further back in the past.
@@2veki yea there weapons and machinery were superior to most in the 1900s
I'm pretty sure an npc in New Vegas mentions that the iguana stand did get shut down at some point. Apparently people found out what was going on when customers started getting "The Shakes" which is something normally only found in cannibals.

Fallout 2 is still for me the best RPG ever
Isometric-era Fallouts = "Fallout Tactics"
I remember when I discovered fallout on my uncle's old desktop in about '02 and it was one of the best games I played, to this very day, (nowadays I might be considered biased due to nostalgia or fond memories of my childhood), but Fallout and Fallout 2 are some of the best in the series, with the exception of needing to spend action points to do anything, then having the thrilling combat ("You missed" "Slaver missed" "Slaver hit you for 10 hit points" "You missed" "Slaver missed" "Oops! Slaver hit Slaver for 5 hit points." "Slaver hit you for 10 hit points" "You died"), but really, the first two games were some of the best games from the 90's along with Doom, Mario 64, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and Pokemon
Woahh relieved my character don't eat much iguana. But he eats a *shit load* of Squirrel (on a stick)... now I'm wondering if it's even from 'squirrels' ^^
Accesserised molerat prolly
or birds or cats etc. bcause they exist and you can kill them... but who knows ^^
I always assumed that iguana on a stick was exactly what the name suggests, iguana chunks cooked on a stick and left behind by some Latin-American apocalypse survivors. It may not be well known but in parts of South America iguana is a delicacy.
hehe, so we find out we're cannibals after all this, strong must be smirking from afar.
it wouldve been creepy if the ss ate some iguana on a stick around him and you see [strong liked that]
indeed friend
111455 when you eat people he likes it and comments on it
yeah, that's kind of my point
there were food shortages before the bombs fell, so maybe iguana was raised as a foodstuff since slightly before the apocalypse. or maybe the name "iguana bits" (and "squirrel bits" for that matter) is a more palatable way to refer to mystery meat :-) lol, and why is no one selling mole rat chunks instead?

sir cheetoh of mountain dew i say it 3 time just fine.
I always assumed that someone brought up a bunch of iguanas from Mexico and started a farm. Caravans could spread it around for merchants to sell. Would probably be pretty lucrative considering all the other meat options.
I'll never eat Iguana Bits again in Fallout games...
Really? Out of all the things you can eat in the game? You literally can be a cannibal. Lmfao

BlueDiamond actually as long as you cook the meat it should kill the parasites.
Iguana meat could easily be Gecko meat.
You find Geckos everywhere, in each of the games but Fallout 4, so maybe wandering traders or merchants bring Gecko meat into the commonwealth.
Maybe Iguana bits/Iguana on a stick was a food product from before the bombs dropped and someone continued its legacy.
you don't find them in fo3
This is fallout. It's human
I think you raise a good point, even if others are quick to shoot down the theory.
WalkMan you raise a great point also don’t forget squirrel on a stick in fallout 3 and new Vegas. You don’t see squirrels but people are eating them and in tenpenny tower when you ask the woman at the restaurant what’s tenpennys favorite meal is she says “an iguana bits sandwich with the crust cut off and a peeled pear on the side” we don’t see bread or pears either but clearly tenpenny is eating them guys

The fallout universe is inconsistent. Its no longer human meat, don't worry. Bethesda employees have obviously never played Fallout 1 and 2. because there is a clear break in the lore between Fallout 1,2 and 3,4.The iguana bits inconsistency can be explained by only 1 thing : Bethesda lack of big picture thinking when it comes to continuity of the canon lore (its not their game universe !! Interplay made it!!). The same goes for Jet, which is a POST-war drug. Was created in the timeline of Fallout 2(you even meet the creator in New Reno !!). But can still be found in Pre-war sealed vaults and sealed artifacts in FO 3 and Fallout 4. Makes. NO.SENSE.
nuka cola X-01 suit anyone?
yes, just, yes
Mr. Coffee …Kellogg worked for the shi.
Or you could just, you know, extrapolate a bit to explain inconsistencies using logic. From Myron we learn that the reason brahmin crap is used in Jet is because meat companies used a protein extract for growing food that got contaminated to feed their herds, ancestors to the later brahmin, and that this contaminated extract acted like amphetamine when consumed by a human. It isn't much of a stretch to imagine some enterprising pre-war dealer got his hand on the stuff and started bottling his own drug, almost exactly the same as Jet if perhaps not for the name.
Or it's possible Myron is claiming credit for this invention when he's the one who copied it from said pre-war drug dealer. Certainly seems consistent with what we know of the guy.
a perfect spot for a...
perfectly healthy and balanced diet choice in a post apocalyptic future.
Iguana drinking game:
*Take a shot everytime Ox says the word "Iguana"*
I've always been of a mind that, it's not necessarily ALL dead people, but rather a slang for just random meat. I say this especially after seeing the jar of meat chunks from Fallout 4 labeled iguana meat. I figure it's alot like critter bits, basically random bits of trap meat you just throw together from the catches that got thrashed too much or partially fouled.
About the pet thing, there already is a population of feral iguanas on the East coast in Florida and have been since halfway through the 20th century that are descendants of escaped or released pets they're just a non-native invasive species so nothing lists them as "Native to Florida" or to the US for that matter.

Never ate iguana meat in FO4. Glad I haven't.
Natro Gaming me too surprisingly i beat the game and never once ate iguana bits
Actually neither did I, I also decided against longneck lukowskis after I found the cannery. Radstag is better. IRL iguanas are tasty
I'm going to eat more now
I'm surprised you didn't mention the successful "potted meat" dealer Longneck Lukowski in Fallout 4. He also purloined some questionable cuts
the difference is verry radiated
So iguana bob’s last name Collins and he has family on the east coast.
So The iguana empire lives.

thanks, gotta think about real world comparisons. and it is easy to think that iguana bob's business becomes a fully fledged industry as he was there at the founding of the hub.
maybe a sort of ripoff brand came about on the east coast using other types of meat and calling it iquana

I haven't even in survival in fallout 4. i hunted radstags, brahmin, mole rats,whatever but i stayed away from any buyable food or "pre-war" food as i play a sort of nomadic playthrough of the game everytime. I recommend it to it's quite fun
me I only used stimpacks
I LOVE HOW YOU APPLY FALLOUT 1. SOMETHING TELLS ME YOU HAVE QUITE A TON OF MATERIAL UPCOMING. CONGRATULATIONS FROM ARGENTINA.
7:17 "Of course thats why I am here" reminds me of obi wan in ep II :)
two hundred thousand iguanas are on the stick, and million more are well on the way
However, in the original Fallout, it's revealed that Iguana on a stick is human meat, but Iguana Bits, not on a stick, is actually Iguana. That's why you don't find any, they are no longer found in the wild as they were eaten, and as such are now only found in farms.
Other way around. Iguana on a stick is iguana. Bits is human meat
Just Another TH-cam Channel iguanas turned into deathclaws
nop chamaleons were turned into deathclaws .
even more specifically the Jackson's Chameleon
I mean we never find squirrels anywhere but we sure have hundreds of squirrel kabobs
"Iguanas aren't on the east coast" - Florida?
I had always had the question of where the iguana meat came from. thanks ox
Anytime there’s any question in fallout there’s always a very deep answer
