Etymology of SCARFED OUT

The phrase "scarfed out" does not have a specific etymology as it is a combination of two separate words.

The term "scarf" originated from the Old Norse word "skarfr", which meant "a cut or a gash". Over time, it came to refer to a long, broad strip of cloth worn around the neck or head as a protection against cold weather or as a fashion accessory.

The word "out" simply means "away from the inside or interior" or "to a position of prominence or visibility".

When the two words are combined, "scarfed out", it typically means to consume food or eat excessively and quickly, similar to the action of using a scarf to quickly wrap something up or cover it. It is often used informally to describe someone who is eating a lot or indulging in a large amount of food.
