Etymology
The term 'mushier' is derived from the word 'mushy,' which dates back to the early 19th century. It originally described a texture that resembles mush, which is a soft, wet mass typically made by boiling or steaming food, particularly grains or vegetables. The adjectival form 'mushy' itself comes from the word 'mush,' which has unclear origins, but it is likely connected to the Middle English word 'mosh,' meaning a soft or pulpy mixture. The use of 'mushier' as a comparative adjective emphasizes varying degrees of softness in texture.
