661-Pete said:Now there's a poser. I've heard of 'gusting', true, but only in connection with the Shipping Forecast ("Gale force winds gusting to 80 knots" etc. etc.) Something tells me that's not the opposite of 'disgusting'.

gust 2 (g
n. 1. Archaic Relish; gusto.
2. Obsolete a. The sense of taste.
b. Personal taste or inclination; liking.
