Trying a bit of food.
خلفية ثقافية
At Swedish supermarkets like ICA or Coop, you will often find 'smakstationer' where you can 'smaka på' new products for free. It is considered polite to offer a 'smakprov' if you have a variety of pastries, but don't feel pressured to give away your whole cinnamon bun! Commentators frequently use 'smaka på segern' when a team is close to winning after a long drought. There is a cultural emphasis on 'matglädje' (food joy), encouraging children to 'smaka på allt' (taste everything) at least once.
The 'På' Rule
If you are the subject doing the action, you almost always need 'på'. If the food is the subject, you don't.
Politeness
Asking 'Får jag smaka på...?' is a very polite way to show interest in someone's culture or cooking.
