One way to hold this word: a hollow thing waiting to be filled, and the soft mass you push into it. Stuffing names what goes in, not what it is made of — bread and herbs inside a bird, cotton inside a bear. Take the mass out and the outside goes flat.
From the word’s history
By surface analysis, stuff + -ing: the thing that is stuffed in. That reading fits every filling sense on this page.
字面上是 stuff（塞、填）加 -ing，也就是「被塞進去的那個東西」。這個讀法剛好蓋住這一頁上所有「填充」的意思。
