Text In this podcast, the word "bite" means the volume of food that one tears off with one's silverware or teeth and puts into one's mouth at one time: "Here, try a bite of this pasta - it's delicious!" A "bite" can also be any strong, pleasant flavor: "This casserole has a nice bite to it." Sometimes a "bite" is a strong feeling of being cold: "That wind has a nasty bite, so be sure to wear a heavy jacket." In other contexts, a "bite" is something that makes something very powerful or effective: "The new law puts a bite into the government's efforts to reduce drug use." Finally, a "bite" can be an injury made by the mouth of an animal or insect: "Quincy got at least 20 mosquito bites when they went camping last weekend, and now they're all red and itching."
