Hacking Taste
Taste is the oldest of our five senses, and yet\xa0perhaps\xa0the\xa0least understood. It\u2019s far more complicated than salty versus sweet: new research is dramatically expanding our knowledge of taste, showing that\xa0it\u2019s\xa0intimately connected to obesity, mood, immunity, and more. In this episode, we get into the science of\xa0how taste works, why we taste what we do, and what makes supertasters unique. And finally, we hack\xa0our taste buds\u2014for fun, but, in the future, maybe for health, too.\nLearn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
