Having a pleasant or satisfying flavor; delicious.
"The fresh strawberries were so tasty that we ate them all before dessert was even served."
In plain English: Tasty means something has good flavor and is enjoyable to eat.
"The chocolate cake was so tasty that I ate the whole slice by myself."
Usage: Use "tasty" to describe food that has an appealing and enjoyable flavor, though it is slightly less formal than the synonym "delicious." Avoid using this word for non-food items like music or art unless you are employing specific slang usage.
The word tasty comes from the root taste combined with the suffix -y. Its specific meaning in Filipino English originates as a loanword from "Taystee," which was once a popular brand of bread before the company went out of business.
