'''{{wp|Meat}}''' in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] is a common item, taking on a variety of appearances, but is most commonly depicted as the flesh of an animal with a bone sticking out of it.
'''Meat''' is the food that replaces [[Mushroom]]s in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' during [[Bowser]]'s special sidescrolling levels. Like the Mushrooms that make [[Mario]] grow up when he is in [[Small Mario]] form, meat makes Bowser bigger. Meat can be found by hitting certain [[? Block]]s. If Bowser takes a hit from an enemy, he will shrink down by one level. Getting enough pieces of meat in one level will make Bowser gigantic, allowing him to smash through everything in the level, similar to [[Mega Mario]]. Meat does not appear outside of Bowser's sidescrolling events in the same game. The meat used in the game resembles a leg of lamb.


Similar giant pieces of meat can be found floating in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]]'s [[Ghostly Galaxy#A Very Spooky Sprint|A Very Spooky Sprint]] level in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.
