The delicious thrill elicited by being scared by a specific controlled thing or event. This is an intentional, emotion-driven, temporary fear that we subject ourselves to because we know there’s no real danger (or damage) involved. It’s fear within the parameters of our safety zones, like riding roller coasters, driving fast, or entering a House of Horrors. Savory means “to give flavor to; to season,” and most of us sprinkle little savory fears throughout our lives just because we enjoy the flavor. Hey, we need a cold-chill thrill now and then to remember we’re alive!
