Tastebuds: From Tasteless to Terrific!
Our tastebuds are designed to recognize four flavour categories: sweet, salt, sour, and bitter. If all they get are sweet and salt, they end up with less to do. Just like muscles, they stop working well if we don’t use them. Tastebuds get clogged up with disuse, and can even shrivel up and sort of … die!
