Meaning Mnemonic

What is the jet of your mouth? It's flavor. It's what shoots your mouth off, which explains why it hurts so much when you eat something awesome.

Hints

Imagine how your favorite food tastes. Imagine a jet taking off in your mouth because of it.

Reading Mnemonic

And what has more flavor than a big slab of meat (み)? You love meat and its flavor nearly as much as you love the flavor of its juice. So many good things to put in your mouth!

Hints

Of course, if you're vegetarian imagine the flavor of the meat being terrible. Up to you. Make the mnemonic work for your lifestyle.
