English term

a relied-upon taste sensation

Homework / test English to Italian Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Ciao a tutti,
la frase è: "they acted as if it (=gelato italiano) was nothing but a delicious snack, a passing pleasure, something to enjoy and move on from, not a desperately relied-upon taste sensation that kept them buoyed above the abyss of depression and anxiety"

Grazie a tutti.

una sensazione a pelle/a gusto personale

mi da l'idea che si tratti di sensazioni strettamente personali, quindi direi 'a pelle' o 'a gusto personale'..
