Tasted a plum, it was delicious, saved the seed. And now the big question, if I plant it, will it grow true?

If the plum was a wild plum (unimproved by breeding or selection), then the seed might produce a tree with very similar fruit. Since you say it was delicious, I'm going to assume it was pretty far from a wild fruit.
