核心畫面

Picture the moment food hits your tongue and your whole face changes — that rush of pleasure you can taste. Delicious names that rush. Once the word is attached to it, it can be lifted off the plate and put on any pleasure that feels just as rich: a delicious silence, a delicious sense of freedom.

可以想成:食物一入口,整張臉的表情就變了——那一下濃濃的、身體感受得到的享受,就是 delicious 抓住的東西。更多收起可以想成:食物一入口,整張臉的表情就變了——那一下濃濃的、身體感受得到的享受,就是 delicious 抓住的東西。它本來長在舌頭上,但那份快感一旦有了名字,就可以從盤子裡端出來,放到別的享受上:一段難得的安靜、一種終於自由的感覺,也可以是 delicious。
