im confusing myself, what is meat?

Just like us-muscle, fat, skin, nerves, organs. Tissue is a nonspecific term referring to any of the various cell structures that are found in living beings.

Meat is animal flesh that is used as food. Most often, this means the skeletal muscle and associated fat and other tissues.

meat is fat and muscle and tissue... its everything its just a cut out of an animal.

Technically it would be just the muscle. In your example, chicken, the meat would like the thigh meat, breast meat, leg meat etc. For vegetarians, any part of an animal, be it fat or cartilage or bone, it would still be meat.

By products such as gelatin, milk etc are not meat. Gelatin is a colorless tasteless organic compound extracted from bones and skin. Neither is what many refer to as "bone char" which is almost pure carbon and no longer "meat" any more than wood charcoal is a tree.

meat is muscle, muscle is the part your supposed to eat

fibrous tissue

and your not supposed to eat muscle?

Meat Is muscle.

FYI everyone, exsft is a child molesting catholic! He once molested his daughter!!

Its muscle, mostly.

I don't know why you don't think you're supposed to eat muscle.
