In this episode, we talk about tasting and what flavors you actually taste with your tongue.
You only taste five distinct flavors with your tongue. They are:
Salty, Savory, Spicy, Sour and Sweet.
In this episode we discuss these flavors and do a tasting exercise to help you identify what flavors you like, and which flavors you don’t like!
