Question

Which sentence would a writer use to best appeal to the reader's sense of taste?

After they got home from the hospital, they finally ate their dinner, which had gone cold.
Before they rushed out to the doctor, they had stuffed the spaghetti in the refrigerator, where it lost much of the great taste they had smelled while it was cooking.
The spaghetti had gone sticky and cold while they were gone, but the spicy cheese and sweet marinara sauce still mingled in her mouth perfectly.
Cold spaghetti wasn't as bad as he'd expected; in fact, he thought, he might prefer it this way the next time he made dinner.

Answer 1

Answer is

“The spaghetti had gone sticky and cold while they were gone, but the spicy cheese and sweet marinara sauce still mingled in her mouth perfectly”.

Reason: this sentence describes the texture “sticky and cold”, and taste “spicy and sweet”, which are “sensory words” that help you imagine these tastes from the descriptive words.

Answer 2

Answer: "The spaghetti had gone sticky and cold while they were gone, but the spicy cheese and sweet marinara sauce still mingled in her mouth perfectly."
