Science of taste

When you can taste the food, then you are living. Otherwise, you are dead. In other words, the ability to eat food is a life-and-death matter. If you fail to taste the food, then you slowly move towards death. You feel food with the help of taste buds. On your tongue, on the roof of your mouth and inside your cheeks. When these taste buds come in contact with food, they send the taste messages to your brain through nerves. Then only you can feel about the quality, temperature, smell, and flavor of the food. Your brains can distinguish the chemical attributes of food after receiving the information provided by the taste buds.

Why do you differ in taste?

Yes. People differ in test sensitivity, smell sensitivity, and the enjoyment of food due to varying numbers of taste buds. Mildly sensitive tasters have fewer fungiform papillae; so they eat to live. Moderately sensitive tasters live to eat, where highly sensitive tasters having plentiful fungiform papillae love what they like.

Do other factors make a difference in taste?

When you take food in a positive mood, then your brain releases serotonin, so your food tastes sweeter. On the contrary, when you take food with off mood or negative emotions, then your food tastes sour. If you practice mindful eating, your food will taste better. It helps to digest your diet too. Sometimes foods with your favorite colors taste better. Meals, when served in a beautiful plate in a place with the perfect ambiance, feel better.
