Are taste buds more sensitive to different flavors on different parts of the tongue?
Supposedly, there are different types of taste buds on different areas of the tongue. It is hard to actually prove this, since your saliva spreads the taste all over. Some scientists feel that this is not true anyway, but you can experiment. Get four samples of tastes - sweet, bitter, salt, and sour (make sure they are fairly wet samples because you will be drying your tongue off!). Stick out your tongue and dry it off with a paper towel. Then touch a drop of each taste to different spots on your tongue. The traditional spots are: * Bitter - back of the tongue * Sweet - front of tongue * Sour - one spot on each side of the tongue toward the front * Salt - one spot on each side of the tongue toward the back
