Come pig
'"Calaceiro" comes from "Calaca" and the word of Greek origin, very specifically designated parts of the meat from pigs which were not utilized for consumption. As you think, should be very little, since the pig, as everyone knows, everything is useful, even the feet. Anyway, since these were Calaça pig's remains will be taken and the meaning of "laziness," "sloth," because the poor, to fight in front of the houses, called for Calaca, namely asking for leftovers, debris or meat or other foods. And the part at all, came the term "calaceiro" as one that asks Calaça synonymous with slothful, lazy, does not work and lives of begging, the expense of others' ( Common Places, Mafalda Lopes da Costa, Antena 1, 05/06/2011).
There will have their sources. The Portuguese Language Dictionary of Porto Editora not contribute to the elucidation of the matter. The Priberam Dictionary of Portuguese Language notes the former meaning "forum which was a piece of flesh, but it's obvious misunderstanding of what he says Br Joaquim de Santa Rosa of Viterbo in his Elucidário . For honest Mitchell, Calaça was' pork rib or band. " As for 'calaceiro' gives it as derivative, probably from English calabacero . "It seems to be the coast, or band of a pig" noted Br Joaquim de Santa Rosa of Viterbo.
