dainties

Delicious sweets, delicacies, and confections generally served at the tables of kings (Gen 49:20). Although such foods were not viewed as inherently unfavorable just because they appeal to one’s appetite (Job 33:20; Rev 18:14), prudent Israelites were to avoid eating them at the table of unscrupulous persons whose intentions might be harmful (Ps 141:4; Prov 23:3; Prov 23:6).
