- senkora 2y agoThank you for putting the idea of the mind’s tongue into my nightmares.
- odyssey7 2y agoIt could be an important faculty in some professions.
- rjzzleep 2y agoThere’s a French show called le prochain grand pâtissier. In one season there a guy who dislikes sweets (or sugar I can’t remember) but said he could taste it by smelling. The chefs didn’t believe him, but I think they were proven wrong.
- TylerE 2y agoThat’s really surprising that chefs would think that - you’d think they of all people would know that smell is actually more of perceived taste than actual taste is.
- t-3 2y agoNot super surprising, sugar has a strong smell (and really disgusting too - try sticking your nose in the bag sometime). I can usually tell how sweet something is by smelling it.
