Middle English (denoting a store of meat): from Old French lardier, from medieval Latin lardarium, from laridum (see lard).

  • In the past, and in many peasant societies, the pig has been a vital source of food for the winter: it can be salted and preserved, and traditionally you can eat every part of it except its squeak.

It comes from the French word meaning ‘bacon’ that also gave us lard (Middle English), and the lardon (Late Middle English), a cube or chunk of bacon.
