Taste buds are primarily located on the tongue, specifically within small structures called papillae. While the tongue is the main site for taste perception, there are some taste receptors found in the cheeks and the roof of the mouth, but these are far less numerous. The lips, however, do not have taste buds and are not involved in the sense of taste. Therefore, while the tongue is the primary organ for tasting, other areas contribute minimally to the overall experience.
