God’s
Tasting
Goodness By Bethany Woelmer
Preparing food is a daily process of tasting,

adding more seasoning, tasting again, throwing in another spoonful or more slices, tasting once more, sprinkling more salt, tasting again and again, and...I’m sure you get the picture. Whether we are in the kitchen making soup, at an ice cream parlor choosing the perfect kind of ice cream, or at the dinner table trying a new food for the first time, our sense of taste is stimulated and doing its job, affirming our favorite foods and creating categories of “likes” and “dislikes” according to what we desire.
