Porch Talk ☕️ Tastebuds

Porch talk is basically general discussions and stoner thoughts lol. So I'll bring in the first of many dumb tboughts which im sure yall will start posting yours too 😂

​

Tastebuds are weird to me. I dont understand how mint toothpaste can make everything I eat/drink taste so different. Also how come saliva doesnt have a taste?

​

Also there's that thing where as you grow uo your tastes just 180, like you can "Learn" to like stuff. Thats just weird to me

👴 Old guy knowledge incoming: As you grow older, your tastebuds literally die off. That's why you "learn" to love bitter stuff like coffee, beer, or olives. Your 30s will hit you different, trust me!
