CIACCAFAVA

Ciaccafava would appear to be from the Marches, from Montemarciano and Senigallia in the Ancona area, it should derive from a nickname with the meaning of schiacciafave, that is to say the one who produces the mashed beans for the fava bean soup typical of central Italy, but the term also had a second offensive meaning of slackers.
