    The taste bud thing is even worse. There are zones of buds which specialize in certain tastes, but they are scattered around the whole tongue. The brain know their pattern and recognize them as you are tasting something.

    Thought Emporium made a video about faking taste and between 5-11 he explains in depth.

      Don’t get me started on the 5% of our brains thing. Utter bullshit. There’s no way I’m reaching even close to that number.
