Not super common but it is a euphemism for vomit. There is a rather amusing pun about it in Egil’s Saga—Egil drinks till he’s sick and stands to nearly smother his excessively loquacious, one might say logorrheic :P, dinner host in vomit. When the dinner party responds in angry shock he says, paraphrased: He was spewing all night, so you can’t be mad at me for doing the same. It’s worth noting that vomit probably has 100, easy, synonyms/euphemisms/idioms in American English.
