Iguana on a stick

Iguana bits are a consumable item in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.

In Fallout 4 and Fallout 76, the naming changed and bits is a term referring to loose iguana meat, while iguana-on-a-stick now refers to the meat skewer formerly known as iguana bits. This page lists both.

Background[]

Bits are simply cut-up pieces of iguana meat, served in a variety of ways. As iguana meat is stringy,[Non-game 1] it needs to be processed to be edible, with some methods including charring[1] or boiling in carrot broth to make iguana soup.[2] Bits can also be eaten on their own after preparation, with a side of vegetables,[3] or turned into a sandwich.[4][5]

As bits do not look like an iguana, any other meat can be used in this place. This was abused by the famous Iguana Bob of the Hub around 2161, who served "prime select" pieces sourced from human remains.[6][7] The charred meat with vegetables was available for just 8 caps, as opposed to 20 for the whole iguana,[8] and were extremely popular, while Bob's culinary skills made them some of the best charred iguana in New California.[9] His secret never got out and 80 years later, his son would continue selling lizard kebabs at the NCR capital, sharply dressed and stylish.[10]
