filling
What's packed inside
Filling is what goes inside something to complete it.
The filling in a pie or sandwich is the food between outer layers.
A dental filling is material placed in a cavity.
Filling also describes food that satisfies hunger quickly: That soup was really filling.
The act of making something full is also filling: the filling of orders.
