Having a strong, pleasant taste; flavorful and palatable; also: agreeable and interesting to the mind.
From Latin 'sapidus' (tasty), from 'sapere' (to taste AND to know/be wise). The same root means BOTH 'tasty' and 'wise' — the ancients linked FLAVOR to KNOWLEDGE! 'Sapiens' (as in Homo sapiens) means 'the tasting one.'
The same Latin root means TASTY and WISE! 'Homo sapiens' literally means 'the TASTING human!' Ancient Romans believed tasting and knowing were the SAME skill! A sapid meal teaches your tongue! 🧠👅
