Taste
Our five senses correspond to spiritual affections, or the attraction we feel toward spiritual things. The sense of taste, according to the Writings, corresponds to the affection for knowing, or the affection for being wise. This makes sense; we often immediately know and judge the quality of a thing by its taste. When people taste things in the Bible, it means they are seeking wisdom and enlightenment, and when food tastes good it shows the delight they feel in being wise.

Ezekiel 23:31-34
31
You have walked in the way of your sister; therefore will I give her cup into your hand.
32
Thus says the Lord Yahweh: You will drink of your sister's cup, which is deep and large; you will be ridiculed and held in derision; it contains much.
33
You shall be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of your sister Samaria.
34
You shall even drink it and drain it out, and you shall gnaw the broken pieces of it, and shall tear your breasts; for I have spoken it, says the Lord Yahweh.
