Phrase fat
Text The word "fat," in this podcast, means the oily part of foods: "How much fat is in a hamburger?" The word "fat" can also be used to describe someone who is overweight, although it isn't very polite: "Nobody likes sitting next to fat people on airplanes." The phrase "baby fat" refers to the fat on a baby's or child's body that should go away with age: "Chelsea is 10 years old and is just starting to lose her baby fat." The phrase "to chew the fat" means to have a friendly conversation for a long time: "They talk on the phone every day, chewing the fat for hours." Or, "How many hours of each day do you guys chew the fat instead of working?"
