In this legend, Kitchi Manitou presents Nanabosho with a gift of tobacco to be used for offering before using the other gifts that were put forth on this earth. Nanabosho, in his hurry to appease his hunger, promptly forgets the tobacco. But he does not forget the advice given by Kitchi Manitou. He lets his hunger gnaw at him while he tries to figure out what to do. The legend tells how the hoop dances started.
