Etymology
The word 'blubbery' is derived from the noun 'blubber,' which originates from the Middle English word 'blobber,' meaning a thick, soft fat or grease. 'Blubber' itself has its roots in the Old English term 'blober,' which refers to the greasy substance found in marine mammals. The term gained popularity in the 19th century, particularly in relation to the oil derived from whale blubber used in various industries. Over time, 'blubbery' evolved from being primarily associated with marine life to referencing a soft, greasy texture in general, often used in culinary contexts to describe certain foods or in a colloquial sense to describe physical attributes.
