lol I love “gusting.” Next time I eat someone else’s cooking, I’m throwing that out there.

I use it occasionally, though normally not seriously, along with words where you have an “un” or "dis’, but no positive equivalent, e.g. “gusting” as a positive “disgusting”

English lacks a “gusting” word, but romance languages don’t.
e.g. in Italian “gustoso” is the opposite of “disgustoso”

That’s a brilliant fact, and perfect example if anyone disagrees with me, thank you :)
