Etymology

The word 'meaty' comes from the Old English term 'meat,' which originally meant 'food' but has since become more specifically associated with animal flesh. Over time, as the culinary world evolved, the adjective 'meaty' emerged to describe food that is rich in meat or has a robust, fleshy quality. The superlative form 'meatiest' follows the standard morphological rules in English for forming comparatives and superlatives by adding the '-iest' suffix. This development reflects the cultural emphasis on meat as a staple food in many diets, particularly in Western cuisine, where the richness and heartiness of meat dishes are often celebrated and sought after.
