Food is not a living thing that you can use actionable verbs, you can only use adjectives to describe them. That’s what I’m trying to say.

@rur That’s valid. You’re referring to the person as the noun, a living thing.

You can try;
They have been drinking these wine for 30 minutes and they are already drunk.

@rur That’s valid. You’re referring to the person as the noun, a living thing.

Specifically the taste:That apple is sweet.Being very descriptive:That apple is crunchy, juice and sweet.

You don’t really use continuous tense to describe the taste of food, unless you mean it in the context of the food going bad. Is that your intention?
