Dr. Walsh ,'Potential'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh sure - the noun is just my personal jumping-off point. I still think savory-the-adjective is the opposite of "sweet" though.
This is how I use it, but that is probably the French influence, where (taste-wise) you are either "sucré" or "salé." Technically these mean sweet/salty, but in practice, it means you either prefer sweet things or savory things.
Lack of DEEP SERIOUSNESS did get me pre-emptively turned down for a second date, though...
Sounds like you missed a really wild fun-filled date there.
The savory is a little bite of something rich, salty, and piquant—a marrow toast, perhaps, or a stuffed egg, a talmouse (a kind of cheese tartlet), or a potted lobster.
I realize this is "savory" as a noun, but it still hews pretty closely to how I think of "savory" as an adjective. (Well, mostly the "rich" part. And then add in the not-sweet part, and that's savory-the-adjective, in my brain.)

Which just made me think of the unisex/you-and-I-sex thing.
Bwah.
I was on my way over here with umami, but I see we've gotten there already....
I think people on the current annoying project may be getting their acts together. We're just in a clusterfuck of non-communication.
I just wish the left hand around here would bother to tell the right what the hell they were doing so I don't have to scramble to explain the disconnect.
Gmail just completely horked on me.
