    When we eat some delicious food, we usually say "I really enjoyed that!"

    But surely this is ass backwards. The food "Enjoyed you!" It gave "you" joy, you did not impart joy to it.

    So I now say "That really enjoyed me."

    To enjoy a thing pre-supposes awareness of the thing. Food isn't aware, so I think it is probably not able to enjoy anything.

    The word 'enjoy' doesn't really mean 'to give pleasure to' or 'to put joy into'.

    Live oysters are 'aware', and I doubt they enjoy being pried out of their shells and ingested.

    Here are several of the aforementioned examples...
