Isn't it strange that the slaves did not seem to be aware of this. Instead,
their own narratives show that they were given the worst portions of
slaughtered animals and the lowest quality fruits and vegetables of the
harvest. Inner city meat cut availability in the markets indicate that this
heritage of eating animal parts spurned by the slavers has become a preferred
meat selection. The slaves didn't need land set aside for themselves because
the relatively small plantation operations, which owned most of the slaves,
numbering fewer than 10 for the most part, grew their own food and raised
their own slaughter stock as did farmers generally up to about the 1940s.
