Where this word comes from
Clipping of rabiot (“(originally fishermen and military cant) excess, remainder; (earlier) (1831) excess of fish remaining after rations had been imparted to the mates, (1859) soup soldiers often left over in their mess tin, (1832) an extra something which one can enjoy”). Further unclear, probably from (Gascon) Occitan rabiot (“little fish; leftovers from fishing”).
