The taste we detect the easiest is typically bitter. This sensitivity to bitterness is thought to be an evolutionary adaptation, as many toxic substances have a bitter flavor, prompting a quick aversion to potentially harmful foods. Our ability to detect bitterness is heightened, allowing us to react swiftly to avoid ingestion of toxins. Other tastes, like sweetness, are also easily detected but are generally less critical for survival.
