When a fly lands on your food it firstly tastes the food with sense organs in its feet. When it realises it is good to eat it then 'vomits' digetive fluid onto the food which turns it into a liquid 'soup' (on a small scale of course - this is only a tiny area but it is enough for the fly). The fly then mops it up using its modified proboscis (elongated mouthparts) which is shaped like a sponge at the end. And they tend to judge us based on our personalities!
