Or, "High-fiber cereal and fruit is more filling than a piece of white bread." As a noun, "filling" is something that is placed inside another type of food, especially within a bread-like product: "These dumpling have a pork-and-cabbage filling." Or, "Which donuts have a jelly filling"? When talking about dental or teeth and mouth care, a "filling" is a small amount of metal put into a small hole in a tooth left by decay: "The dentist said that Ramona would need two fillings." Finally, the "filling" of a pillow refers to the material that the pillow is stuffed with: "How can I wash these cushions? They have a feather filling." |
