verb
informalNorth American
To squash, crush or press something soft or squishy out of shape, often by squeezing or flattening it.
To smush something means to press or squeeze it until it loses its original shape, typically applied to soft things such as food, clay or a pillow rather than to anything hard or rigid. The word is casual and playful in tone, often used about children squashing food on a plate or someone flattening a sandwich by sitting on a bag. It is closely related to squash and mush, and probably grew out of a blend of the two, though its exact origin is not firmly documented.
