DESCRIBING TASTE AND FLAVOR


https://world-food-and-wine.com/describing-food

I am so aware of my “delicious”, “tasty”, & “yumm”, which is the cause of my “damn delicious!”. And I’m certainly not alone. I hear it daily on the Food Network, among many. 😉 Truthfully…sometimes I don’t want to think about it, don’t care; say what I’m thinking and that can be just DELICIOUS or yummO! I’m not writing a book after all. ➼ 😆 💓🍴

I did want to save and share this however. I can find it fun and/or interesting to play with words 😉
