Insipid Lacking Adjective Bland Flavor Interesting Exciting Stimulating

Insipid is often used to describe food, as in the following sentence: “The novice chef left the roast in the oven too long, cooking out all the spices and rendering the meat insipid.” But the word can also apply to anything that lacks interest or excitement; for example: “The insipid, overly defensive style of both soccer teams resulted in a nil-nil draw and the most boring match the fans had seen in years.”
