liveonearthfrom google:
pabulum • \PAB-yuh-lum\ • noun. 1 : food; especially : a suspension or solution of nutrients in a state suitable for absorption 2 : intellectual sustenance 3 : something (as writing or speech) that is insipid, simplistic, or bland.
Easily absorbed = simplistic and bland?
Intellectual sustenance doesn't sound that desirable in this form.
Nor does food.
A little spice goes a long way.
