Well,

It simply means that when it comes to describing food, it is very difficult to be objective as everybody has their own taste.

What kind of tests are you talking about? Do you mean English language examinations such as the TOEFL and TOEIC?

Yes, it can mean that you write about food -- whether it's just an article or a book, for example.

Writing something on a birthday cake (e.g. with icing) could also be described as 'writing on food'. Razz
