Taste Modifiers

[edit]

While not important to general sensation of taste, Taste modifiers may be important to mention or link somehow? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.147.205.130 (talk) 22:20, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note

[edit]

Citation 31 should be the following:

"Huang AL, Chen X, Hoon MA, Chandrashekar J, Guo W, Trankner D, Ryba NJ, Zuker CS (2006). The cells and logic for mammalian sour taste detection. Nature 442: 934-938."

It's better to have the original paper as opposed to a ScienceDaily article.

Savoriness

[edit]

It says that cheese can be described as Umami, but link 45 (it's source) is dead.

Outdated

[edit]

The sixth sensory "taste" has apparently been determined, there should at least be a note about this. Google for "oleogustus". A terrible name, yes. https://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/releases/2015/Q3/research-confirms-fat-is-sixth-taste-names-it-oleogustus.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:14BA:16F2:E800:F860:B28C:F62C:D583 (talk) 11:32, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's there; look up Oleogustus, which redirects to the section Taste#tFat taste, where the term is mentioned and the concept discussed. (talk) 13:11, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
