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.

Matthew 20:22-23
22
But Jesus answered, "You don't know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?" They said to him, "We are able."
23
He said to them, "You will indeed drink my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with, but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father."
