tastebuds suck a lot actually

Posted by BiiDot - 1 day ago


honestly i think we would be better off without them

yeah food tastes good n shit like that but how many good tasting foods actually outweigh the bad tasting ones


like just imagine how much easier it would be to eat foods that objectively taste like civilian grade ass

usually the healthy stuff like brussel sprouts and artichokes and allat

itll be less like "oh this tastes like gracjkdfh i dont wanna eat it no more" and instead more like "oh this just tastes. maybe i can eat like 17 more of these for the hell of it"


do you understand what im getting at here

shave off the top layer of your tongue

i dunno fuggin sand it or file it down or sumn just find a way to get the buds offit

itll be waaaaaaaaaaaay better in the long run trust me

I'm pretty sure the point of them is so you don't eat rotten food, but I see what you mean.

cmon rotten food cant be THAT bad
if i cant taste it and it isnt poisonous thats basically edible when you think about it
whats the worst that could happen? ? ?

There are medical conditions that make patients lose their sense of taste either permanently or for several years. From what I gather, the people affected get sad every time they have a meal at first, but even as they get used to it they aren't too stoked at mealtime.

Also: Some foods (such as Brussels sprouts) have a disgusting texture. You'd still experience the texture, so unless you turn everything into a smoothy, you wouldn't be able to escape that aspect... (I'm not a cat myself*, but from what I hear, cats can barely taste anything and mainly determine food quality through the texture. Which might be why some cat food smells so abysmal.)

i cant back this up since i (unfortunately) still have taste buds, but i feel like loss of taste would kinda trivialize eating stuff
seems a lot easier to just chew/drink the shit -> gulp -> leave but then again i cant speak on this until i find a working belt sander so ill get back to you on that

also that cat fact was kinda cool i didn't know that!
looked sum up & ig they can taste a select few kinds of tastes except for sweetness and probably spiciness? got mixed answers on that so maybe ill ask for an expert opinion
