Wikipedia: Filet mignon
Filet mignon (/ˌfiːleɪ ˈmiːnjɒ̃/; French: [filɛ miɲɔ̃]; lit. ‘“tender, delicate, or fine fillet”’ ) is a cut of meat taken from the smaller end of the tenderloin, or psoas major of an animal carcass. In French it can refer to the tenderloin of several animals but is mostly used to refer to cuts of pork tenderloin.

I can’t be the only one who, as a child, thought “filet mignon” was “flaming yawn.” Like a dragon just yawned and lightly cooked the meat?
