Juicy. Zaftig as fruit or meat.
Juicy gossip as a zaftige shtikel lushen Horah
But what about a zaftige mensch? Like a geshmak person or zaftige shmuess.
What about fish zaft? Fish juice? Lol
Zaftig you would also say on a cute chubby round plump kid

You can listen to a geshmake shiur, you can be a geshmake person, you cN enjoy a geshmake shmuzz, but it's still not fun.
It can be fun to argue but not geshmak
