Calling someone a 'snack' means they're attractive—something you'd like to consume. 'Whole meal' = even more attractive. 'Looking like a snack' = looking attractive. Less serious/formal than calling someone 'hot.'

把一个人叫做「snack」（零食）意味着他们很有吸引力——让人想要'品尝'。「Whole meal」＝更有吸引力。「Looking like a snack」＝看起来很有魅力。比叫人「hot」更轻松、不那么正式。

Llamar a alguien «snack» (tentempié) significa que es atractivo/a, algo que querrías degustar. «Whole meal» = aún más atractivo/a. «Looking like a snack» = tener muy buen aspecto. Menos serio/formal que llamar a alguien «hot».

誰かを「snack」と呼ぶのは、その人が魅力的という意味——食べたくなるような存在。「Whole meal」＝さらに魅力的。「Looking like a snack」＝魅力的に見える。「hot」と呼ぶよりカジュアルで軽い表現。

누군가를 'snack'이라고 부르는 것은 매력적이라는 뜻이다—먹고 싶을 정도로. 'Whole meal' = 더 매력적인. 'Looking like a snack' = 매력적으로 보이는. '핫하다'보다 덜 진지하고 격식 없는 표현이다.
