English term or phrase: almost good enough to eat
Hier geht es um Jonglierkunst, nicht ums Essen. Leider verstehe ich nicht, was gemeint sein könnte. Danke für Aufhellungen.

The visual effects created by Feeding the Fish’s electronics have been described as 'almost good enough to eat', and alongside the juggling itself, the technology is pivotal to the performance.

Explanation:
Ich glaube, es geht schon um Essen: die visual effects sind einfach so gut, dass das Fischfutter so echt/lecker aussieht, dass man fast reinbeißen möchte - würde ich meinen. Knusperknusper!
