    Default "Verb sausage"

    Hey! I need some help with an English expression.
    I´m translating a chapter from "I am America and so can you" by Stephen Colbert for university and I have found the expression "VERB SAUSAGE".
    Could anyone explain it to me? This is the context:

    Secret number one: A Thesaurus. Eggheads love the words, so the more you jam in there, the better. Think of it as a verb sausage.

    Thankss

    "Salchicha de verbos", kind of like a play of words, "Eggheads love the words" seems to indicate that.
