belly wadding
n.— «In the cowboy movies we often see cow punchers and gunfighters pull out what appears to be a short strip of leather and chew away on it—somewhat of a substitute for ribs and beans when they were on the trail or when there was a lull in dodging bullets. Some of the cowboys referred to it as “belly wadding.”» —“Local jerky popular in Iraq” in Badghdad, Iraq Moultrie Observer (Georgia) Dec. 29, 2008. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
