These things are awesome. My sister got them for her birthday, but I'd rather have the commercial explain what they are:
I've always wanted to try this. It just seems like a fun experience! I take it that you had some fun enjoying some sour foods with this?
I like how it uses an incorrect mapping of taste buds.
I like how it uses the incorrect myth that different sections of one's taste buds detect only specific sensations. All taste buds are the same, but by constantly being fed (pardon the pun) this "map", people are training their tongues/brains to perceive it as it is on the map. Other than that, this seems interesting to try :B
I've always wanted to try these! I always knew the tongue map was crap. I could taste sugar all around my mouth when I was little, hence I never believed it.
[s]lol at the VAT19.com jingle XD[/s] Never heard of these before, actually. They seem really cool! How long does one tablet last, though? (It would be odd putting a lemon in your mouth thinking it's going to taste sweet, then finding out it's normal. :P)
My sister and I bought A LOT of fruit for this, everything except for the raspberries tasted different. I can't remember how long it lasts, but I think it's somewhere between 15-30 minutes.
