When my mom was a kid (WWII in Europe) her mom would make bone soup from boiling a meat bone in water (for flavor) and adding a turnip or carrot from the withering garden to round out the meal. I don't know if that was before or after my mom tried to boil her own shoe after seeing Charlie Chaplin do the same in "The Gold Rush". (She would sneak in under the turnstile.) She said it looked so tasty on the big screen.
