Such pseudoscience.
Water is also found in both vomit and chocolate.
They didn't provide any quote suggesting butyrate tastes like vomit, or gives vomit its distinctive flavor - just that it provides a tang, like /all acids do/. You wouldn't say that sour butter or Parmesan taste like vomit, but those were also listed as containing butyrate.
- shawabawa3 9y agoActually I think parmesan does taste a bit like vomit. I think it's pretty well known - if you google "parmesan tastes" the first autocomplete is "like vomit"
- nl 9y agoI also think Hershey chocolate tastes a bit like vomit. Parmesan cheese too. I wonder if it is a genetic thing that only some can taste, like the bitterness in Brussel sprouts.
- tpeo 9y agoIt's not like all vomit tastes the same either, but that's something that people somehow fail to take into account unless they've been on a couple of benders.
- neohaven 9y agoButyric acid is one of the main "notes" of butter. Especially when being melted. This whole article is absolutely ridiculous.
