Taste good in a bad way 

A way of saying that something didn't taste good and a way of camouflaging an honest answer when people ask if you liked their bad tasting food.
Norwegian: Did you like the Norwegian brown cheese?
Tourist: Well, it taste good in a bad way!

Good Taste 

Good Taste isn't about liking your favorite movies, video games, anime, music or food. Good Taste is about good judgement, good opinions, etc.

You have good taste in music 

When someone says you have good taste in music, what they mean is:

1. "You like the exact same music I do, so you must like good music"

2. "I'm mainstream as fuck, and you seem indie, so you must be like a music god"

3. "I don't have anything else nice to say about you, so I'm going to pretend that the music you listen to isn't shit."
1. You like Radiohead? You have good taste in music!

2. Oh, I've never heard of that band. But you have good taste in music.

3. Any guy would be lucky to date you! You're pretty, and, uh, smart. And, uh, you have good taste in music."

ghastly good taste 

Interior decoration of mechanical perfection, lacking all life or connection to its owner. Furniture that you don't dare use, since actual use would destroy the design effect.
My aunt's house was furnished in ghastly good taste. She had plastic slipcovers on all the furniture so that we children wouldn't actually contact the fancy upholstery, and plastic runners on the carpets.

ghastly good taste 

Decor and furnishings that are untouched by human hands. You don't dare use it lest you spoil the effect. Plastic slipcovers, plastic 'authentic reproductions' and sterile decor all qualify as ghastly good taste.
