Rabbit Track Stew
Down South when a husband is sent out hunting and doesn't get
anything (usually because he got drunk instead of hunting) he
will come home and ask his wife if she can make dinner with
rabbit tracks because that's all he could catch. Also,
rabbit track stew is what people eat when times are tough
and there's not enough food.

Never eat split hoof animals because they are unclean
animals; they carry disease, and they eat their own defecation.
