Why is it dangerous to taste acids and bases?

Acids and bases can have extreme pH ranges, making it dangerous to taste them. The pH scale is a measure of how acidic or basic a solution is; acids can have a pH of 0-7, while bases range from 7-14. Your mouth is 'neutral', meaning it has a pH of 7. If you put strong acids or bases (pH very low or very high on the scale) in your mouth, where the environment is neutral, the acid or base will harm your mouth. However, some acids such as vinegar and basic foods like watermelon and asparagus are safe to eat, because they are not strong enough to harm your body.
