To taste something
Hello
please correct the following sentences:
"it tasted to both of us" I mean that we had some food and we liked it. (could it be possible to say "we liked it" speaking about food?)
"it was not my linking " "it didn´t taste to me" correct? Is the first only to be referred to food?
Thanks!
Pamela

OR, "It tasted to both of us as if the cook had used too much salt."
"We liked it!" is fine.
"It was not to my liking." (note spelling)

Thanks for the reply.
If I understand it correctly, " I like it" "It tastes good" can be referred to food both
"It doesn´t taste" means that has no flavor ?
"it has a bad taste" or "it tastes bad" " it doesn´t taste right" means that that food is not good
Please confirm
Thanks!!
