They are the receptors in your mouth that give you taste, like sour and sweet.

How can taste buds be fooled?
Your eyes do not affect your taste buds, but they will make you more likely to be willing to try something. If a food does not look good, it would give you a negative opinion before you try it.
How do female taste buds defer from male taste buds?
Nope. At least not according to my textbook/professor. We're on the "special senses" chapter now, it's a college course and text so I'd say it's legitimate. In case you're curious, it says that we all have about 10,000 taste buds. The bumps that you can see on your tongue are called "papillae" and each one can contain 600 taste buds. But it says nothing about varying between genders in the entire section. (The text is by Tortora.)
Why do we have taste buds?
Things that are bad for us often taste bad. People lived longer if they could avoid eating bad things. Having a sense of taste allowed you to live longer, and have babies. A sense of taste was a survival factor.
How does the tongue recognize tastes?
there is actually no specific sections on the tongue regarding sour, bitter, sweet. These taste buds are scattered throughout your whole tongue. There are no receptors for chile/spicy, these are actually pain receptors. You test this on your own. Place a sour candy on any part of your tongue and you will taste sour.
Does smell effect taste?
Yes. Olfactory cells in the nasal passage respond to chemical molecules in the air and send it to the brain. The brain combines those signals and those from the taste buds to give you the flavor that you taste.
How do you convice someone to eat a new food?
Try it yourself! give him/her an honest opinion. Tell him/her tht and say taste buds r different.
How does the taste functioning?
The tongue contains taste buds in the folds of papilla, the bumps on the tongue, that have gustatory receptors that can taste one of the six taste sensations (sweet, salty, sour, savory, bitter, and fat.) these signals are sent as electronic messaged from the gustatory receptors along neurons to the brain, which will give the sensation of taste.
What region of the tongue has taste buds for sour food?
Taste occurs over the whole surface of the tongue. Certain areas of the tongue may be more sensitive to one of the five tastes humans can register: sweet, bitter, salt, sour, and savory (like garlic).
What are the best herbs to put on a salad?
possably mint because it give the salad a zesty flavour and chives to give it some tange this will really bloow you taste buds ( mix in with salad do not eat the mint on the chives can you eat!)
Can you taste without smell?
No, because 70-75 percent of taste comes from smell. Taste buds allow the perception of only bitter, salty, sweet and sour tastes. It is the odor (smell) molecules from food that give the most taste sensation. You might taste a little, but not enough. Yes, you can taste without smell. I was born with anosmia (no sense of smell) and I can taste things just as well as the next person.
