u/Honest-Spring-5963 Jun 19 '26

Which flavor do you think will register?

u/Silver-Marzipan7220 Jun 19 '26

Nothing since we taste our buds all the time

u/AdOk5225 Jun 19 '26

Do you think if someone else tastes it it would taste different? Since they're only used to their own taste buds

u/iJon_v2 Jun 20 '26

How does one taste their own tastebud?

16

u/AdOk5225 Jun 20 '26

With their tastebuds of course

u/Longwordshananigans Jun 20 '26

You've seen "AirBud,"

Now get ready for....

u/XevianLight Jun 19 '26

A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts

u/implicate Jun 19 '26

Hey, bud.

u/Fappy_as_a_Clam Jun 19 '26

What if we tasted our buddies bud tho

u/ybotics Jun 20 '26

Take my upvote BUT technically they don’t actually touch each other when they’re embedded in your tounge and isn’t it the touching that creates the taste thoughts to your brain? Taste buds might be able to taste other taste buds or other types?

Straight up tasting it, and by ā€œitā€ let’s just say, haha, my bud

u/Both_Algae_3324 Jun 19 '26

Everything he’s ever eaten all at once

u/chisayne Jun 19 '26

Great movie

u/Both_Algae_3324 Jun 19 '26

Maybe taste bud extraction from all the children Willy Wonka kidnapped was the secret ingredient to his everything gum

u/Stealthytulip Jun 19 '26

That's like asking someone what their upper lip smells like.

u/GammaGoose85 Jun 19 '26

The taste of a fallen brother

u/Due-Box1690 Jun 20 '26

It's so small that you wouldn't be able to register anything but the instrument with which you picked it up

u/Ok_Try_2086 Jun 19 '26

Huh, who would have guessed? Tastes like chicken

4

u/cynuhstir1 Jun 19 '26

Im glad I'm not the only one who had this thought. I was immediately like "well you have to eat it"

8

u/MobAssassin3 Jun 19 '26

I chewed off a piece of my tounge to taste it. I was around 10 and bored at like 3am. I bit down then just slowly chewed off like a dime size piece of my tounge. I went to bed a but later and woke up to my pillow soaked in blood

u/slvtcvlt666 Jun 19 '26

You know, you don’t have to lie to kick it.

u/MobAssassin3 Jun 19 '26

How are you going to tell me im lying about something I did?

24

u/apathetic_avocado2 Jun 19 '26

Because it sounds like straight bullshit?

-14

u/MobAssassin3 Jun 19 '26

Fair enough. Don't need your validation. I know what I did. It hurt a bit and that section I chewed off grew back without an issue

13

u/GMAN7007 Jun 19 '26

Because it's more likely you didn't do it and are trying to get attention online. Post s pic of your tongue a dime sized would should have some lasting damage.

9

u/slvtcvlt666 Jun 19 '26

Oh no, didn’t you hear? It grew back, fam.

u/MobAssassin3 Jun 20 '26

Looking at my tounge in the mirror I see no scarring or like indent that would show there was an injury in the area. With a few Google searches I found small injuries to the outside of the tounge heal without much issue. The base of the tounge or closer to the center causes permanent damage.

So I have no way of proving it. Call me a liar that's fine

u/smokinsomnia Jun 19 '26

Because if it's not a lie you might be low key a sociopath or something but idk as long as you're okay that's what matters

3

u/Both_Algae_3324 Jun 19 '26

Okay I need to know though like did you bite off a chunk or did you chew at it in a way someone might chew their lip

3

u/MobAssassin3 Jun 19 '26

I bit my tounge. Kinda like punching holes in paper close together till a small piece came off.
