Re: Lembas

It was said that it may have been a property of the lembas that enabled Frodo to survive for so long. It was also distasteful to Gollum and the orcs, so a vital ingredient of it may have been the makers themselves, infusing it with a quality of Goodness that was bad for Bad people. What's this about it not being good for mortals?!
