Answer

Mentioning something 'in passing' means mentioning it alongside the main topic of conversation. It will be something insufficiently important to mention by itself, but while you are discussing a related topic it is little trouble to mention it as well.

Answer

I agree with Jimmy, however; I would like to mention that talking to someone in passing refers also to "small talk" details that would be trivial: not of dire importance unless "need-to-know basis" such as an investigation or really nosy person.
