Author Terry Bisson's short story, which reads as a conversation between two extraterrestrials, first appeared in ''Omni'' magazine in 1990. When it opens, the two beings are talking about an encounter they've had with creatures (presumably humans) they've ''picked up from different parts of the planet.'' The first being is questioning the second about the makeup of these creatures and cannot seem to understand how meat could be capable of making - and using - machines:

''That's ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You're asking me to believe in sentient meat.'' To be sentient means to have feelings or senses.

The first being simply cannot believe that anything made of meat could be thinking, feeling, or creating. The second being tells the first that they probed the lifeforms and everything - including the brain - is made out of meat. In fact, these suspicious creatures are ''...thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. Dreaming meat. The meat is the whole deal!''
