I didn’t know the word “hami niku” until I recently heard it while watching a TV program. It is one of the dazzling array of newly coined words that have gained currency in this nation for various reasons.
The neologism comes from the combination of two Japanese words: “hamidasu” (bulge out) and “niku” (meat), and means fat bulging out of the body, or superfluous flesh.
