'''Meat''' refers to [[animal]] [[tissue]], especially that which is consumed as [[food]]. There are various kinds of meat, ranging from white meat such as ([[chicken]] or [[turkey]]) to red meat (such as [[beef]]). Some meats, such as [[ham]] resist such strict classification.

Meat is also used in English expressions to mean ''the important material''. To "get to the meat" of a topic means to arrive at the important points. Other foods are often used in this way, such as "the [[pith]] of the matter" or also "chew the fat."
