Describing the Taste of Food

Steve, my new boyfriend, decided to cook dinner for me. I was really excited, That is, until I tried his cooking.

Steve: What do you think of the soup?

I thought: This is so Bland, and what are these little Lumpy things in the soup? Of course I didn’t say that aloud.

Elaine: It’s Delicious. It has a very interesting Flavor.

When Steve served the main course, a baked chicken, he asked,

Steve: What do you think of the chicken? Is it too Salty or Spicy?

I thought: Yes! It’s too salty and it’s so spicy I can hardly eat it without breathing fire. The outside of the chicken is Overcooked and the inside is Raw! But out loud, I said,

Elaine: No, not at all! It has an interesting Texture and I’m enjoying every Bite.

I thought: Oh, no. Is there more? Steve went into the kitchen and brought dessert.

Steve: What do you think of this cake?

I thought: This cake should be Sweet, but it has a strange Sour taste. Could there be something seriously wrong with Steve’s Taste buds? But aloud, I said,

Elaine: It’s Yummy. It’s the best cake that anyone has ever made for me.

And it was true. I didn’t care how bad the meal was. It’s the thought that counts.
