eat what you kill

proverb:
A hunting policy or gun-ownership policy opposite of hunting for sport. Meaning that you should kill only to eat, or that you should never waste the meat of an animal you've killed.
or
A commandment to live by regarding taking responsibility for your actions. As in "you killed it, now you'd better cook it and eat it".
or
A path to gaining power. Ancient peoples sometimes believed that by eating an animal, one could absorb that animal's strength, agility, cunning, or general power. But only the one who slays the animal. In this case, "eat what you kill" refers to the ultimate triumph over a worthy opponent or conquest. Competition between corporations sometimes leads to mergers where the more successful company acquires and absorbs the less successful competitor - ie. how AT&T attempted to acquire T-Mobile.
or
An expression meaning "leave no trace". As in, a trail of dead bodies could give away the retreating path of a fugitive - so in the event you don't want to be followed, don't leave any dead bodies behind you along the way. Only a super bad ass would eat what he kills, and leave no trace.
You wanna make it in this world? Eat what you kill.

Oscar remembered that he promised Hector he would give him the extra ticket to the concert after they got high last night, but he knew he had to take Mary or she'd break up with him. Since he enjoyed having sex with her, he couldn't have that! He knew Hector would understand as this issue fell into the realm of "what's spoken when smokin'."
