Ants and certain species of butterflies are known to taste food with their feet. Ants have taste receptors on their feet that help them identify food sources, while butterflies use their tarsal organs to sense flavors and nutrients in the plants they land on. This unique adaptation allows them to assess food quality without having to use their mouths directly.
