no. Well the taste buds will detect 4 different 'tastes': sweet, sour, salt, and bitter. But, the sense of smell will add to the experience known as 'taste'. If you have a cold, and your nose is stopped up, things taste different than 'normal'.

Dogs taste buds?

A dog's senses of taste and smell are closely linked and it is possible that dogs gain more information about food from its smell than from its taste. Dogs have a vomeronasal organ in the roof of their mouths which allows them to "taste" certain smells. This organ transmits information directly to the part of the brain known as the limbic system, which controls emotional responses. Most of a dog's taste buds are clustered around the tip of the tongue. Dogs can detect bitter, sweet, salty, and sour tastes, but their sense of taste is relatively poor and they have only one-sixth the number of taste buds that humans have.


Why is sense of smell more important than the taste buds in detecting flavor?

Our sense of smell is more important in detecting flavor because it is responsible for detecting the majority of aromas in food. When we eat, aromas travel up to the back of the throat where they combine with taste to create flavor. Without our sense of smell, we would only be able to detect basic tastes like sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami.
