mēt ( βρῶμα , brṓma , βρῶσις , brṓsis ): In the King James Version used for food in general, e.g. "I had my meat of herbs" (2 Esdras 12:51); "his disciples were gone away into the city to buy meat," the Revised Version (British and American) "food" ( John 4:8 ). The English word signified whatever is eaten, whether of flesh or other food.
