bitter flavor, a sour taste, a sweet taste. When you enjoy the taste of something, and want to keep it in
your mouth for a long time, we say you savor the taste.
If a food has a LOT of flavor, then it can be described as strong or rich – the strong flavor of garlic, the
rich flavor of chocolate. When the level of flavor is low, it is a mild flavor or a subtle flavor. Both of
these words have a positive connotation – “This cheese has a nice, mild flavor” or, “The subtle flavor of
ginger adds a nice touch to this marinade.”
The expression bland taste or bland flavor is a way to describe food with little flavor, with a negative
connotation. For example – “These crackers have such a bland flavor that it feel like I’m snacking on
cardboard.”
There are some foods that people usually don’t enjoy the first time they try them… but with time,
people learn to like the flavor. A food like this can be described as an acquired taste.
