Word origin

The term 'pigged' comes from the noun 'pig,' which has been used in English since the 12th century, originally referring to a young swine. The association with greed or excessive consumption likely stems from the perceived nature of pigs as animals that eat voraciously. Over time, 'pigged' evolved into slang, particularly in the 20th century, to describe human behavior characterized by gluttony or indulgence. Its use in popular culture has reinforced this meaning, making it commonly understood in informal settings to depict someone who is indulging excessively, especially in food.
