[Sca-cooks] charcut?

[agora at algonet.se]

Ord charcuterie come from Latin and it means "cooked meat" Cuit (cooked) Caro 
(meat) and it's used as all the meat derivated from the carnage of pigs and lambs.
"To cook meat" it's the etmymological sense of the word.

Abbreviation for the French word, "charcuterie," maybe? The denizens
of my PUFF file (Perfectly Useless Facts and Figures) say that it's a
word related to the selling of meats, like a slightly specialized type
of butcher? But they could be wrong, those denizens. ;o) --Maire
