Pronunciation: shmek sta see

Sentence: When Kevin Kruller and Brenda Bismarck met for a coffee date each week, they inevitably had to try the latest flavours of donuts. Since Homer's Donuts (mmmm donuts...) prided itself on inventing new flavours each week, this sweet couple had to try them all. They became Homer's guinea pigs for his new creations and were in schmecktstasy. They also helped him give them quirky names, like the Holey Grail, Peaches & Cream Cheese, The Loonie Bin (covered in nuts) and Lard of the Rings. Their suggestion, The Traffic Circle (chocolate icing, with potholes on it and yellow lane markings) remains the favourite choice of the cops who frequent Homer's place.

Etymology: Schmeckts(German/Yiddish word for Taste...schmeckts gut=tastes good) & Ecstasy (a state of elated bliss;pleasure;euphoria;bliss)
