The taste buds of a butterfly are on its feet, sounds crazy, they put their feet on something to see of its poisonous or something before eating (drinking?) it.
how dose a butterfly taste something? they have little hairs on their legs that taste things! this is true, no matter how wiered. think of how odd that would be!
Some insects have sensory cells in their feet that enable them to detect certain chemicals.For example, a butterfly can, through its feet, detect the sugars in plant nectar.
Taste receptors on a butterfly are located on its feet. These receptors help the butterfly sense and identify potential food sources by allowing them to taste substances when they land on them.

The monarch butterfly produces a chemical that gives its body a very bitter taste; which birds hate. They get that taste from the Milkweed plant which they feed on. These are the adaptations of the Monarch butterfly and it benefits by feeding on the milkweed plant and stays safe.
The adaptation of the monarch butterfly is a early diet of milkweed. This diet of milkweed ensures the caterpillars and the adults taste terrible. A predator has only to taste the bitter monarch once to learn to avoid them in the future.
