The first person to cross the threshold of any house on that occasion is sup posed to do so bringing gifts to his or her host — gifts of food or coal, both tokens of warmth and friendliness. In return, the first-footer re ceives a drink. But that's not all. People used to compete vigorously for the honor of being a first-footer, and ran races from door to door. Their hosts might or might not be happy to welcome the visi tors.

It was served to hearty-eating miners in the Rockies in 1858. After oys ters and pork, which were conventional "openers,” the menu went on to elk. ante lope, buffalo "smothered” and grizzly bear a la mode.
